The
BUFFALO NICKLE
Was minted Years 1913-1938 for a Short time which makes the
Buffalo Nickel one of America's most distinctive coins ever minted. It is considered by many as a work of art with its dominating Great Plains images - the American Indian on its obverse and the Buffalo on the reverse. Because of its great beauty the Buffalo Nickel has become a particular favorite with coin collectors.
The portrait is believed to be a composite of three Indian chiefs, although the identities of the models have been disputed. A few Native Americans laid claim to be the model for the coin. The artist himself identified two of the models as Chief Iron Tail, a Sioux and Chief Two Moons, a Cheyenne. Unfortunately, Fraser had trouble remembering the names of his models. He had been asked the question so many times, that it was evident he was growing tired of the whole issue rather than set the record straight. In an undated letter to Mint Director George E. Roberts believed to be from 1913, suggests that Fraser considered the Indian design represented a type, rather than a direct portrait. He said he could recall Two Moons and Iron Tail as having served as his inspiration and possibly “one or two others”. In alter years he dropped the number of possible “other” models to one.
The one Indian originally believed to be the third model was Chief Two Guns White Calf, a Blackfoot. And A Fourth idea is that many Believe that Wolf Robe (b. 1838-1841, d. 1910, Oklahoma)[1] who was a Southern Cheyenne chief and a holder of Benjamin Harrison Peace Medal was Really who the picture on the nickle Is .
