Story of the Texas Buffalo
“2006 Texas Buffalo Silver Dollar, for thousands of years the shaggy buffalo ranged the Texas plains and forests. Millions of these great and noble beasts gave food, clothing, and tools to the inhabitants of our great state – they still do. Our 2006 Texas silver dollars remind us of the comeback of the buffalo and the beauty of one of Texas’ greatest treasures.” – Rick Pinner
