Native American Dollar Coin Appraisal

United States Native American/Sacagawea Dollar Coin

The item is a circular, metallic coin, appearing to be a United States Native American or Sacagawea dollar coin, distinguishable by its golden-bronze color. The obverse side, which is visible in the image, features a central effigy of a Native American figure, likely Sacagawea, with a child on her back. The design includes 'LIBERTY' prominently arcing above the figures. The year '2001' is clearly visible to the left of the figure, indicating its minting year. The coin exhibits a reeded edge, though not clearly visible from this angle. The material appears to be a manganese-brass clad, characteristic of these dollar coins, giving it its distinctive golden hue. The surface shows some minor signs of circulation wear, including subtle abrasions and a slight loss of original luster, suggesting it has been in active use but is still in relatively good condition. There are no significant scratches, dents, or other forms of damage visible that would drastically diminish its aesthetic or numismatic value. The craftsmanship is consistent with modern U.S. coinage, featuring fine details in the engraving. The coin is resting on a dark grey, knitted fabric surface, which provides a textural contrast to the smooth metallic surface of the coin. Its dimensions are standard for a U.S. dollar coin, approximately 26.5 mm in diameter.
