1 oz .999 Pure Copper Medallion — Buffalo Nickel Design #3
Product description
This listing is for a single 1 troy-ounce (1 oz) medallion struck from .999 fine copper. The piece bears the Buffalo Nickel-inspired design (Design #3) and is issued as a round medallion rather than legal tender.
Each medallion is presented in a 2" x 2" clear vinyl protective sleeve to guard against handling marks and surface blemishes. The disc measures approximately 39 mm (1.54 inches) in diameter — a touch larger than a typical U.S. silver dollar — and has a thickness of about 2.5 mm (0.098 inches). Gross weight is approximately 1 avoirdupois ounce (28.35 grams).
These copper rounds come in several different motifs and styles, making them useful for collectors building themed sets or for buyers seeking small, memorable gifts. They are well suited to desktop displays, coin albums, and common plastic air-tight holders sized for silver dollars, and they arrive ready to be shown or stored.
Pros
- Attractive Buffalo Nickel-inspired design
- Solid .999 fine copper composition
- Fits common silver dollar holders
Cons
- Ships only in a basic vinyl sleeve
- Details less crisp than government mint strikes
- Limited protection from long-term tarnish
VerdictA solid, attractive copper round for collectors and gift-givers alike. The medallion offers a substantial feel and faithful Buffalo Nickel styling at an affordable weight and size. It ships in a simple clear vinyl sleeve for basic protection and fits common silver dollar holders. If you want an eye-catching display piece or a pocket-sized memento, this .999 copper medallion is a dependable choice.

Nicely executed nickel look
The finish is very appealing and the golden-toned area gives the medallion a striking two-tone effect. I bought three and am pleased.

Unique copper option
Very distinctive. I’d like to see the same design struck in other metals besides copper.

Nice addition for collectors
If you want something different to round out your collection, this is attractive. A bit costly for some, but fine for one or two pieces.

Souvenir quality, sleeve fragile
Nice coin as a souvenir; note that the plastic holder cracked easily.

Good display piece
As a collector I found it pleasing. Details aren’t mint-state sharp, but it looks great on my desk and fits my silver dollar holders.
