In the obverse design of the Reverse Proof Sunshine Buffalo Copper Round, James Earle Fraser’s composite portrait of a Native American chief in powerful right-profile relief takes center stage. His strong, dignified features and single feather convey a quiet authority and humanity that immediately made this design one of the most celebrated portrait images in American numismatic history.

For the reverse of 1 oz Reverse Proof Buffalo Copper Rounds, the design element depicts Black Diamond, Fraser’s bison model, standing solidly on a rocky mound in a boldly naturalistic composition that replaced the formal heraldic eagle tradition with something drawn directly from the living American landscape.

The Buffalo Nickel was born from President Theodore Roosevelt’s passionate campaign to elevate American coinage to the artistic standards of the ancient world, with sculptor James Earle Fraser receiving the commission to create a design that would capture something authentically and uniquely American. Fraser drew on his own childhood experiences growing up on the Western frontier, modeling his iconic Native American portrait from three actual chiefs who sat for him.
