Mint State Native American Dollars With Errors
The United States Mint uses a two-step process to its strike Native American Dollars—first striking the coin, then striking it with edge lettering. We recently secured a hoard of Native American Dollars that escaped the mint without undergoing the second step. Further, production of Native American Dollars is, by law, prohibited, so no more will ever be produced!
No Edge Lettering Error Coins Signed By A Coin World Giant
Edge-lettered coins enjoy a rich history in the United States. Dating back to the 1790s, the technique of inscribing the edge of a coin was used to deter payers seeking to cheat their payees, by making it virtually impossible to shave down the edges of the coins. And, this 2010 Native American Dollar should have included the phrase “E PLURIBUS UNUM,” the date “2010,” the mint mark and 13 stars. Instead, its edge is smooth. But that error isn’t the only thing that sets your coin apart. This Native American Dollar is sonically sealed in an acrylic slab and encapsulated with a label that’s been personally signed by Edmund C. Moy, who served as the 38th Director of the U.S. Mint from 2006 to 2011. During his time as director, Moy oversaw the launch of a number of popular modern coins including the America the Beautiful Quarters Program.
Beautiful Designs That Honor Native Americans
The coin is comprised of a striking mix of Copper and Nickel, and features the Native American Shoshone woman, Sacagawea, designed by Glenda Goodacre. Carrying her infant son Jean Baptiste on her back, Sacagawea gazes over her right shoulder, and is surrounded by the inscriptions “LIBERTY,” and “IN GOD WE TRUST.” The reverse of the 2019 Native American Dollar was designed by Thomas Cleveland, and depicts a Native American Hiawatha Belt, which represents the creation of the Haudenosaunee (Iroquois Confederacy.) The belt contains five symbols that represent the original five nations of the Iroquois: The central Great White Pine Tree (Onondaga Nation) and four squares to represent the Mohawk, Oneida, Cayuga, and Seneca tribal nations. Five bound arrows symbolize the unified confederacy. Also inscribed on the coin are “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,” “HAUDENOSAUNEE” and “GREAT LAW OF PEACE,” and the denomination.
