The Design

The obverse features James Earle Fraser’s renowned right-facing portrait of a Native American Chief, inspired by a composite of three tribal leaders: Big Tree, Iron Tail, and Two Moons. The inscriptions include “LIBERTY,” the year of issue (2025), and the artist’s initial “F.” The “W” mint mark appears behind the Chief’s neck, signifying its West Point origin.

The reverse depicts the mighty American Bison—commonly referred to as a buffalo—standing proudly atop a mound of earth. Surrounding inscriptions read “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,” “E PLURIBUS UNUM,” “IN GOD WE TRUST,” and “$50 • 1 OZ. .9999 FINE GOLD.”

The proof finish delivers exceptional contrast, with deeply mirrored fields highlighting the matte texture of the raised devices.
