2001-P/D Silver Buffalo NGC MS69 & PF69 2pc Set

the only Silver Buffalo issues ever produced

A truly special modern rarity, this 2001-P and 2001-D Silver Buffalo 2-piece set represents the only Silver Buffalo issues ever produced, making it a must-have for Buffalo Nickel collectors and modern rarity specialists alike.

Struck as a one-year-only issue with a tiny mintage, these elusive Silver Buffaloes are seldom offered together, especially in matching certified grades. This set includes:

• 2001-D Silver Buffalo graded NGC MS 69
• 2001-P Silver Buffalo graded NGC PF 69 Ultra Cameo

With a total mintage of just 500,000 coins, the one-year-only 2001 Silver Buffalo had a fraction of the annual production of the American Silver Eagle, roughly 20x smaller than 2001 Silver Eagle output and about 33x smaller than the series’ long-term annual average.

Highlights:

• Complete 2001-P/D Silver Buffalo 2-coin set
• The only Silver Buffaloes ever issued
• One-year-only release
• Tiny mintage
• Certified by NGC
• Includes MS 69 and PF 69 Ultra Cameo
• Ideal for collectors of Buffalo Nickels, modern rarities, and low-mintage silver issues

For comparison, one widely cited running total for American Silver Eagles shows 629,227,737 Silver Eagles through 2023 across 38 years, which works out to an average of about 16.56 million per year. That makes the 2001 Silver Buffalo’s 500,000 mintage only about 3% of that average, or roughly 33 times smaller.

Even if you compare it just to the 2001 Silver Eagle output, the contrast is still huge: a commonly cited figure is 9,001,711 mint state plus 746,398 proof Silver Eagles in 2001, for about 9.75 million total, which is roughly 19.5 times higher than the Buffalo’s 500,000.

Featuring the iconic James Earle Fraser Buffalo Nickel design in beautiful silver format, these pieces combine classic American numismatic artistry with exceptional scarcity. The brilliant business strike and deeply mirrored proof create a stunning matched pair that stands out in any collection.

With their status as the only silver Buffaloes ever issued, their limited availability, and strong collector demand, this 2-coin set offers both eye appeal and numismatic importance.

A rare opportunity to own a complete set of one of the most distinctive and underrated modern U.S.-style silver issues.
