Sacagawea & Native American Dollars 2000-Present

Welcome to our selection of Sacagawea and Native American Dollar Coins. Launched by the U.S. Mint in 2000, the Sacagawea Golden Dollar was the first United States dollar coin to boast a distinctive golden hue thanks to its outer layer of manganese brass. Featuring the young Shoshone woman, Sacagawea, who significantly aided the Lewis and Clark expedition, this coin quickly became a favorite among collectors.

In 2009, a change was introduced in the coin series. The U.S. Mint transitioned the Sacagawea Golden Dollar into the Native American $1 Coin Program, keeping the iconic Sacagawea obverse while introducing a variety of reverse designs each year to celebrate significant contributions of Native American tribes and individuals.

Each new reverse design in the series narrates a unique story from Native American history, such as the formation of the Iroquois Confederacy, the brave deeds of the World War Code Talkers, the role of Native Americans in the U.S. Space Program, and much more. This series is a remarkable effort by the U.S. Mint to raise public awareness of the rich history and significant contributions of America's tribal communities.

Whether you're a seasoned collector or just starting your numismatic journey, these Sacagawea and Native American Dollar Coins offer a unique blend of history, artistry, and collectability. Dive into our selection and celebrate the diverse and influential role of Native American history in shaping our nation.
