The obverse showcases a modernized reproduction of the Indian head design found on James Earl Fraser’s Indian Head Nickel, also known as the Buffalo Nickel. The portrait of a Native American man was inspired by three chiefs including Big Tree of the Kiowa, Two Moons of the Cheyenne, and Iron Tall of the Lakota Sioux. Inscriptions include “LIBERTY” and the year of issue.
The reverse features an American buffalo, inspired by a 1,550 pound bison named Black Diamond that lived in the Central Park Zoo. Inscriptions include “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,” “NOT LEGAL TENDER,” and the weight and purity. You’ll also find a mintmark in the shape of Provident’s iconic compass logo.
This newly redesigned silver round is based on the original Buffalo Nickel designed by James Earl Fraser. It was produced by the US Mint from 1913 to 1938, and it remains a popular coin among collectors and numismatists. Provident partnered with industry professionals to modernize the look for this new round, while staying true to the well-loved original design.
Each Silver Buffalo round comes in a plastic flip. Multiples within the same order may come in a plastic tube.

So so so much better than any other silver "buffalo" round I've seen anywhere else. This is the only design that doesn't look like it was drawn out by a child (or at least one without much talent). The frosted finish over the whole round brings it all together. This design wouldn't lend itself well to a mirror finish. I seriously cannot speak more highly of this round and it's design. Perfect!"

This is a beautiful round, with a finish similar to the OPM silver bars of the past. There are a lot of places to buy metals online, but Provident should be your only source. Awesome service!

This round is absolutely beautiful in person. I will definitely be buying more.

These are better looking than I thought they would be. I will be getting more.

I received three of these yesterday and this is one of the best Buffalo silver rounds I’ve seen from any mint. The reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 is that there is no 2017 date on the obverse that I can find, and the description said there would be.

Provident does a great job on their proprietary generic rounds and this is no exception. Fantastic detail and a nice finish…this is probably the best generic buffalo round out there. I will be picking some up whenever they are on sale…especially now that the eCheck option is available.
"
I’ve been an avid collector of the Provident Prospectors, but I think these Provident-issued rounds are even better. Great quality and design! And even better, Provident is the hands-down best place for all your metal purchases. Thanks!
"
Nice looking generic round, but no year of issue? Provident did advertise year of issue would be on coin, so I don’t know what’s up with that? It does have a dull or somewhat antique finish which is kinda cool and probably a good security feature. I’m sure I’ll be buying more of these Bullalo rounds in the future.
