The American bison has featured on various forms of American currency, from historic paper notes to the US nickel and even a modern gold bullion coin. North American bison are one of two primary species of bison in the world, with the other being the European bison. Among the North American bison species, you will find two subspecies. The woodland bison predominantly lives in the boreal forests of Canada. The American bison, or plains bison, is more commonly found across the plains of the Midwestern United States. Obverse design elements on these 1 oz Bison Copper Bars include a depiction of the American bison. Similar to the design James Earle Fraser created in 1913 for the US Buffalo Nickel, this design shows an American bison standing amidst some small patches of grass. However, this design sets the bison in right-profile relief. The bison is featured within a circular portrait field with the identifying hallmarks featured beneath. Reverse visuals on the Bison Copper Bar feature a common design element used by the manufacturing mint. This includes a set of wings backing a version of the US national shield at the center. The American flag flutters above the wings and shield, with an ornate field around this design. The identifying hallmarks are also engraved on this face of the bars. These 1 oz Bison Copper Bars are available to you for purchase with plastic flips for individual copper bars. Multiples come in tubes of 20 bars or boxes of 500 bars. The box holds 25 tubes of 20 bars.
