2026 1 oz Gold Buffalo FDD CAC MS70 Founders Label

The 2026 1 oz Gold Buffalo First Day of Delivery CAC MS70 – Founders Label represents one of the most exclusive modern U.S. gold issues available to collectors. Certified by CAC Grading (CACG) in flawless MS70 condition, this coin was released under the highly selective First Day of Delivery (FDD) designation, confirming it was among the earliest coins delivered for certification.

Adding to its distinction is the CAC Founders Label, signed by Louis Palafoutas, a founding member of CAC Grading and the “L” in LCR Coin. This label is reserved for elite modern issues and is produced in extremely limited quantities, making it especially desirable among advanced collectors who prioritize quality, provenance, and exclusivity.

Struck in one troy ounce of .9999 fine gold and issued by the United States Mint, the American Gold Buffalo is widely regarded as one of the most iconic designs in modern U.S. coinage. The combination of CAC MS70 perfection, First Day of Delivery status, and the Founders Label places this 2026 Gold Buffalo among the most prestigious certified examples of the year.
