The Buffalo Nickels were introduced in 1913 and ran through 1938. James E. Fraser was the Mint engraver
who created this historic design. Contrary to popular belief, this is the only non-gold U.S. coin that
features a Native American. Fraser is also famous for creating the Oregon Trail commemorative coin.
The bison is modeled after Black Diamondin the New York Central Park Zoo. Several different Native Americans were used as the model for the obverse image. |
