Question by cal1nu: Should I sell my 2008 W BUFFALO 1 OZ PROOF gold coin now?
Will the current market price for this coin which is currently 00, drop when the economy recovers? Should I sell it now when the price for gold is at the highest? Will the value of this coin keep on increasing since it has the lowest mintage of all gold buffalo ever minted. Or will the price for this coin drop sharply when the 2010 gold buffalo is minted next year?

Best answer:

Answer by Kevin W
it is really up to you and your wants/needs. there is no way of knowing what will happen in the future, but if you can get 00 for it now, i'd jump on that now because that seems pretty high.

Question by YA! YA!: What the actual value of the American Buffalo Gold coin? Since its not solid gold?

Best answer:

Answer by I. B. Zoxx
Where are you getting your information? The American Buffalo gold coin sold by the US Mint is indeed .9999 pure gold.
American Buffalo Gold Bullion Coins are the first .9999 fine 24-karat gold coins ever struck by the United States Mint and offered for sale through a network of Authorized Purchasers. These gold coins are available to members of the public seeking a simple and tangible means to own and invest in 24-karat gold in the form of legal tender coins whose content and purity is guaranteed by the United States Government.
American Buffalo One Ounce Gold Proof Coins are collector versions of the official United States Mint American Buffalo Gold Bullion Coins. Each coin contains one ounce of .9999 fine, 24-karat gold and is presented in an elegant hardwood box with a matte finish and a faux leather inset, and is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity signed by the Director of the United States Mint.
As far as value goes: most dealers will buy them for around 95% of spot and sell them for around 105% of spot.

Question by T C: 2010 Gold Buffalo tribute proof?
There is an ad running on TV by National Collectors advertising the 2010 Gold Buffalo tribute proof. It is a .9999 24 kt gold plated bronze piece. It is 31mgs of 24 kt gold over a bronze coin. It appears to be replica of an authentic 24 kt gold US Mint coin previously offered by the US Mint. The purchase price is .95 plus S&H.Are there any coin collectors out there that know the skinny on this deal. Is it a scam as it appears?

Best answer:

Answer by rtfm
I have a small collection of old coins. In my experience, anything that's "gold plated" is just a gimmick and doesn't appreciate in value.

Question by Ranganathan M: Which fetches more price, American buffalo gold proof or American Buffalo bullion?
Are American buffalo gold proof coins better for investment than American buffalo bullion coins sold in the coin shops? Explain.

Best answer:

Answer by beridoc
You'll pay a BIG premium for the proof. It will be hard to re coop the investment unless it turns out to be a scarce minting.

Often, when you go to sell gold coins, all you are going to get is the bullion value - sad but true.

For investment purposes, you'd probably be better off putting your money in a gold ETF like GLD or IAU.

Question by beekieboo: Bright red dot on gold buffalo coin.?
I have a 2006 Proof Gold Buffalo never been touched by human hands but is has a Bright red dot on the Indians cheek. I need to know if that makes it worth more or less?

Best answer:

Answer by liberty 911
Regardless of the cause, a red dot would not increase its value. It sounds as if the coin is either in a thin sealed mylar mint packaging, or a hard "plastic" case. It is possible the red dot is attached to its container. If it is attached to the coin, it could increase in size over the years depending upon what it is. I would recommend taking the coin to a local coin expert or two for an evaluation. I hope that helps.

Question by Kramsor: American Buffalo Gold coin dimensions?
Hello there,

I have this little problem:

The American Buffalo Gold coin is said to measure 32.7 mm by 2.95 mm (according to the US mint and Wikipedia). It is also made of 24 kt Gold (.9999 purity). However, when worked out mathematically, it results that either these coins have a higher gold content than 1 troy ounce 31.1035 grams (at the given diameter and thickness / height).

Here's how I worked it out:

Volume = Pi x R x R x H
Therefore, Vol. = 3.142 x 1.635 cm x 1.635 cm x 0.295
Answer = 2.4775 cubic cm (or ML)

The density of Gold is 19.32 grams / CC;

Therefore, 2.4775 cc x 19.32 g = 47.86 grams OR 1.53873473 Troy oz. (as opposed to 1 troy ounce, as it is supposed to weigh).

So, as a bottom line: Either they use something else apart from the gold (something denser / "heavier" than gold) or their dimensions are wrong OR they're giving 1/2 ounce of gold for free (which is very unlikely)!

I will appreciate if anyone can illuminate me about this matter!

Thanks a lot,
Kramsor

Answer by getfreducated
They are not perfect cylinders. (You are using the height of the edge of the coin as if it were this thickness everywhere...sadly it ain't so). So to find the volume, you must submerge then in water and find out how much liquid they displace.

Darn! And if you were right, I was going to go buy every one I could find!

Again, I don't know how else to explain it (nor do I understand why there are more answers to this)...coins are not cylinders. They are tiny little works of art whose deminsions are not able to be listed as simple diameters and heights. The government did not "screw up" and put any more "pure" gold in than they said. I agree with the fellow below...Go ahead ask a coin dealer and if they think you are right, I have a TON of gold coins I'd like to sell them by "volume".

Question by babybunny91: can i get cash for a 2010 gold buffalo tribute proof?
The Gold Buffalo Coin is the purest gold coin ever made by the U.S. government. It’s the first U.S. coin ever struck using .9999 Pure 24 KT Gold. Its design is based on the famous Buffalo nickel minted from 1913 to 1938. Wildly popular with investors and collectors, the U.S. government had to stop production because of a shortage of specially made gold blanks. It’s no wonder the price of the last edition is going through the roof! Now, you can reserve your own copy of the 2010 Buffalo Gold Clad Tribute Proof in 31 mg of pure gold.

National Collector’s Mint’s private, non-monetary minting recreates James Earle Fraser’s American Buffalo against a mirror-like background on one side and his iconic Native American Indian Head stands out in stunning relief on the other. The final issue price was to be set at per proof. But, during our special release, this 24 KT Pure Gold clad masterpiece can be yours for only .95. With gold skyrocketing past ,000 an ounce, price can only be guaranteed for 7 days. Limit 5 per order.

Could I take this to a jewelery place and get cash for them?
