Native American Dollars (2009–)

The Greysheet Catalog (GSID) of the Native American Dollars (2009–) series of Dollars in the U.S. Coins contains 2 distinct entries with CPG® values between $3.00 and $5.50.

Since 2009, the reverse of the golden dollar has featured an annually changing design that memorializes Native Americans and, in the words of the authorizing legislation, “the important contributions made by Indian tribes and individual Native Americans to the development [and history] of the United States.” The coins are marked (incuse) on their edges with the year of minting, the mintmark, and the legend E PLURIBUS UNUM. The Native American $1 Coin Act also specified that at least 20 percent of the total mintage of dollar coins in any given year (including Presidential dollars) will be Native American dollars. Production of all dollar coins minted after 2011 has been limited to numismatic sales (Proofs and other collector formats, and circulation strikes in rolls and bags available directly from the U.S. Mint); none are issued for circulation, as they have proven unpopular in commerce.
