2023 Native American Dollar

About This Coin

The 2023 Native American Dollar is a United States dollar from the Sacagawea & Native American Dollars 2000 to Date series — a late issue, 24th of 27 years in the series. In 2023, coins were struck at the San Francisco, Philadelphia, and Denver Mints with a combined mintage of 5.0 million. This ranks 4th of 25 years by total mintage, below the series median of 10.8 million. The obverse features Sacagawea carrying her infant son Jean Baptiste Crapeau on her back and the reverse displays rotating designs honoring Native American contributions to the United States. The 2023 Native American Dollar honors prima ballerina Maria Tallchief of the Osage Nation and American Indians in ballet. The reverse shows Tallchief in a balletic pose with a lunar motif representing the "Five Moons" — five Oklahoma-born Native American ballerinas. A modern issue from an era of rotating coin designs, collector-focused programs, and renewed interest in numismatic artistry. Struck in 77% copper, 12% zinc, 1% other over a pure copper core, weighing 8.1 grams, 26.5 mm in diameter, with a lettered edge. Produced 4 years after the celebrated 2019 key date. Across its variants, estimated values range from $1 to $10 depending on mint mark, grade, and strike type. A notable auction result reached $549 in MS70 grade at eBay. Designed by Glenna Goodacre (obverse) / various reverse designers.
