Only 99, 57, 24, 19 Coins Left!
Dear Reader
You read that right: today you can get that gorgeous 24-karat US Buffalo coin basically FREE.
The coin contains one full ounce of the purest gold.
You ought to act right away, though, because there are only 99 free coins available...
But before I show you how to get your own free coin, let's go into the coin's fascinating story...
Here's a look at the other side of the coin...
In 2005, the Presidential Coin Act declared that the US Mint would finally strike a 24-karat gold coin.
The term "24-karat" is just a fancy way of saying that the coin is 99.99% gold. That's the purest form of gold that exists.
You see, before 2005, the US Mint traditionally added other elements such as silver and copper to gold coins.
This added copper makes the coin "tougher" because gold itself is a
very soft metal. That extra toughness makes the coin less prone to
nicks, scratches and general wear.
For the most part, these other US gold coins would clock in at 92% gold content, or the 22-karat level.
Obviously, there was a huge demand for the purest of gold coins, the
99.99% gold level. Some folks just want the best coins available.
So the US Mint created the beautiful one-ounce Gold Buffalo coin to meet that demand.
As you may recall from the pictures, your free 24-karat gold Buffalo
has the same visual design as the famous "Indian Head" nickel that
circulated until 1938.
That quintessentially American design has a fascinating history of its own.
In 1912, an American sculptor named James Earle Fraser created this Indian Head nickel for the US Mint.
Fraser also crafted this imposing statue of Alexander Hamilton in front of the US Treasury.
So you might say he has physically sculpted a good part of America's economic history.
According to Fraser, he had three different models for the "Indian Head" side of the coin...
First, Fraser met and sketched Iron Tail, a Lakota hero who survived Custer's Last Stand at Little Bighorn.
His second model for the classic coin was Two Moons, a Cheyenne Chief
that also survived the Battle at Little Bighorn. Two Moons later
became head chief of the Northern Cheyenne.
The third and final model Fraser used to craft the Indian Head face
of the Buffalo nickel art was a Seneca chief named John Big Tree.
Chief Big Tree appeared in the famous Western movie Stagecoach. He
also claimed to be Fraser's model for this famous and familiar sculpture
called End of the Trail:
So that's the story of one side of your free 24-karat gold coin. But
the story of how Fraser crafted the Buffalo story is pretty funny...
Fraser chose "Black Diamond," a 1,550 pound jet black American
Buffalo. Black Diamond lived at the Bronx zoo, and this huge bison was
quite the character.
According to Fraser, he was:
"none other than Black Diamond, the contrariest animal in the Bronx
Zoo. I stood for hours ... He refused point blank to permit me to get
side views of him, and stubbornly showed his front face most of the
time."
But, as you can see, Fraser's patience finally won and he drew that
stately side view of Black Diamond that you see right above your video
screen...
So that's the complete back story on your free 24-karat pure US gold Buffalo coin.
Can you imagine holding it in your hand -- feeling its deep weight and enjoying its beautiful re-creation of American History?
