American buffalo gold bullion coins will be produced in 2009, despite earlier reports to the contrary, a United States Mint public notice reveals.
Coin World broke the news in June, reporting that the US Mint would (at some future time) produce only the collector one-ounce, 24 karat Buffalo gold proof coin in 2009, and not the same-designed $50 bullion coin intended for investors.
However, an updated message appearing in the US Mint press room over the weekend reveals a new direction.
