Description

Produced at the Philadelphia Mint, the 2017 (P) Native American Dollar - Position B is part of the Sacagawea & Native American Dollars 2000 to Date series. The U.S. Mint gives 1.8 million as the mintage for the entire 2017-P Native American dollar issue; the edge lettering was applied after striking, and Position B coins were never counted separately. The obverse features Sacagawea carrying her infant son, Jean Baptiste Charbonneau, on her back; the reverse changes every year to honor a Native American contribution. The 2017 Native American Dollar honors Sequoyah, the Cherokee scholar who single-handedly created the Cherokee syllabary, enabling Cherokee literacy and the first Native American newspaper. The Philadelphia Mint, America's oldest coin-making facility, has struck coins continuously since 1792. Estimated market value ranges from $1 to $6 depending on grade and condition. Struck in manganese brass (77% copper, 12% zinc, 7% manganese, 4% nickel) bonded to a pure copper core, weighing 8.1 grams, 26.5 mm in diameter, with a lettered edge. Cataloged as PCGS #623096.
