The Mint sent out a message through its press release RSS feed indicating American Buffalo gold coins in proof and uncirculated versions would be sold July 15 at noon (ET) in the following sizes:</p><p><br /></p><p>one ounce, </p><p>one-half ounce, </p><p>one-quarter ounce. </p><p>one-tenth ounce, and </p><p>a four-coin set which contains one coin in each size.&nbsp; &nbsp; </p><p>Essentially, the Buffalo gold coins will be sold similar to American Eagle Gold coins. </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>However, as already stated, although the announcement was already sent, the Mint quickly pulled it. For whatever reason — maybe pricing needed to be adjusted, the release time had to be changed, marketing jumped the gun, there was a technical glitch, etc., etc. — only the Mint knows.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
