Native American $1 coins
The Sacagawea obverse with a new reverse each year.
What our records show
- For 2009–2025, the years this site covers for this design, our table has production figures for 3 of 17 years; 14 years are not published in the sources we checked (2012–2025).
- Facilities in the record, with the mark their coins carried: Philadelphia: P (2009–2011); Denver: D (2009–2011).
- What the figures count: circulating production each calendar year, without proof or uncirculated-set coins (archived Mint production pages).
“In 2009, the Sacagawea Golden Dollar transitioned to the Native American $1 Coin Program using the Sacagawea obverse paired with different reverse designs each year.”
