His Buffalo Nickel design was inspired by his life growing up in Winona, Minnesota and the surrounding Midwest region.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Buffalo Nickel was in circulation in the United States from 1913 to 1938, at which point the design was discontinued in favor of yet another new image. Fraser’s Buffalo design on the reverse, as depicted on this 1 oz Buffalo Copper Round, was inspired by Black Diamond. That bison was a resident of the Central Park Zoo in New York City during the early 1900s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the obverse face of this copper round you’ll find a replica of Fraser’s bison, complete with the dirt mound that it stood upon in his original Buffalo Nickel design.

In the very center of the design is the heraldic shield, complete with its traditional 3 stars, and a set of eagle’s wings spanning either side. An American flag flutters in the breeze above, while “USA” is engraved below.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach of these 1 oz Buffalo Copper Rounds is available in brand-new condition, and was privately minted here in the United States of America.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sheer Treasures Company","offers":[{"title":"One","offer_id":50442620371136,"sku":"bhf1791422955671","price":13.68,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Two","offer_id":50442620403904,"sku":"ceu1791422955672","price":25.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Three","offer_id":50442620436672,"sku":"die1791422955673","price":34.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0739\/9509\/2160\/files\/buffalo-nickel-copper-round-coin-packed-in-clear-protective-capsule_1.jpg?v=1791422960","url":"https:\/\/freshmodaura.shop\/products\/buffalo-nickel-copper-round-coin-packed-in-clear-protective-capsule","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
