James Earle Fraser’s upbringing in the Midwest prairies served as inspiration for his artistry, culminating in the timeless Buffalo Nickel design.

Commissioned in 1913, Fraser’s design merged features from prominent Native American tribal leaders and the bison, Black Diamond, from New York’s Central Park Zoo. The Buffalo Nickel circulated from 1913 to 1938, leaving a lasting mark on American coinage.
