Reverse

On the reverse of the 2025 Colorized Antique American Bison 2 oz Silver Coin, a detailed profile of a bisons head is depicted with a beadwork-style texture and colorization.

It served as a reminder of the harmony between people and nature. Inscriptions here read AMERICAN BISON.

History

Throughout American history, the bison has symbolized freedom and recovery. Nearly wiped out in the 1800s, the species made a remarkable return through careful conservation efforts. Declared the national mammal of the United States in 2016, the bison continues to stand for strength, endurance, and restoration.
