2011 American Buffalo Gold Coin

Have any of you guys seen the commercial for the 2011 American Buffalo Gold coin?

Supposedly it has a $50 face value, but they offer it for $10 per coin.

Is this coin legal tender?

Why would they basically give you $50 for $10?

Am I missing something?

I saw the commercial this morning, but failed to get the correct website for it. I'll see if I can dig it up. Just wondering if I am understanding this correctly.

I believe it's just coated in gold...not 100% sure...but they are tricky with the way they talk about the coin, saying gold stamped, or gold plated.

either way...if it's too good to be true, it's bs

scam its worth only about $4

I would say its basically a worthless coin and I would definetly not recommend buying it.

don't buy the coin......
