Description
This is a United States Sacagawea dollar coin, featuring a portrait of the Shoshone woman on the obverse and a depiction of Sacagawea carrying her infant son on the reverse. Minted since 2000, these coins are composed of a manganese brass clad composition and have a plain edge. They are standard circulating currency intended for general use.
History
The Sacagawea dollar was introduced to honor the Native American woman who played a crucial role in the Lewis and Clark Expedition. Designed by sculptor Glenna Goodacre, the obverse features Sacagawea with her child, symbolizing her journey and maternal strength. The reverse, designed by Thomas D. Rogers, initially depicted an eagle in flight, later changing to various Native American themes.
Facts
The Sacagawea dollar is unique for its golden color, achieved through its manganese brass cladding, differentiating it from other US dollar coins. It was intended to replace the Susan B. Anthony dollar and the presidential dollar series. Collectors often seek out early mint dates or specific mint marks for their collections.
Value Fact
As a modern circulating coin, the face value of a Sacagawea dollar is one dollar. However, uncirculated or proof versions, as well as coins with rare mint errors, can command premiums from collectors. Market value typically depends on condition, rarity, and demand within the numismatic community.
