Overview

A golden-colored coin featuring the profile of Sacagawea with her infant son Jean-Baptiste Charbonneau on her back. The word 'LIBERTY' is at the top, and 'IN GOD WE TRUST' is to the left.

Historical significance

Introduced in 2000, this coin honors the Shoshone woman who served as a guide and interpreter for the Lewis and Clark Expedition (1804-1806). It was the first U.S. circulating coin to depict an identifiable woman in a central portrait who was not a personification of Liberty.

Estimated value

Circulated: $1.00; Uncirculated: $1.50 - $5.00

Care & preservation

Avoid cleaning or polishing, as this can reduce numismatic value. Handle by the edges to prevent skin oils from causing discoloration over time. Store in a cool, dry place in a non-PVC coin holder.
