I've got one of these beautiful gold buffaloes. Does anybody know the mintage of this coin? The Certificate of Authenticity says it was minted at the West Point mint but there is no mint mark. I read somewhere it was the lowest mintage 1 oz gold buffalo but I haven't seen any supporting evidence.

Anyway, ain't she a beauty?

This particular gold Buffalo was hyped as a "Celebrity" coin.  Many collectors,
myself included, hoped that PCGS would ID them as such.  I did not remove
my order from the box, in anticipation of sending the whole mess to PCGS for
certification and a "neat" label, attesting to same...  Well....  The powers that
be determined that this coin would not be special, hence it was not, and has
not been special.  It is identical, w/o the red box, to the coin sold by the mint
as the "bullion" coin...
