<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Just Carl, post: 274997, member: 4552&quot;]Picky, picky, picky. True but if we want to call that a bufflo, so be it. </p><p>From Wikipedia Encyclopedia:</p><p>In American Western culture, the bison is commonly referred to as &quot;buffalo&quot;; however, this is a misnomer. Though both bison and buffalo belong to the same family, Bovidae, the term &#039;buffalo&#039; properly applies only to the Asian Water Buffalo and African Buffalo. The gaur, a large, thick-coated ox found in Asia, is also known as the Indian Bison, although it is in the genus Bos and thus not a true bison.</p><p><br /></p><p>Then of course there is the Red Book, page 127, 2008 Edition that clearly states BUFFALO and eveyone knows that the Red Book is never wrong. </p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp; I like the entire coin and will not dispute who or what the Indian on it may or may not be. Don&#039;t need my house shot up with arrows. :smile Just kidding of course. </p><p><br /></p><p>That Buffalo must be a real big attraction type since our government continuously repeats it on other coins.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
