$50 2009 Proof Gold Buffaloes On Sale

The 2009 Proof Gold Buffaloes went on sale October 29, 2009, and the Mint sold nearly 19,200 coins within the first week.

This is a large number of coins sold by the U.S. Mint compared to the $50 Proof Gold Buffalo coins from 2008. In 2008, the Mint sold just over 19,500 coins during the entire period they were offered.

There is unquestionably a large demand by both dealers and collectors for gold coins. With the recent cancellation of several of the U.S. Mint gold-related products, it has only increased this demand.

The 2009 $50 Proof Gold Buffaloes are still available directly from the U.S. Mint, and currently, there is no ordering limit. The coins are now priced at $1,360 each. The prices of the coins will fluctuate depending on the spot price of gold.
