Sacagawea Dollar Coin
This is a United States Sacagawea Dollar coin, specifically showing the reverse side featuring a soaring bald eagle designed by Thomas D. Rogers. The coin is composed of a manganese-brass clad material over a pure copper core, giving it a distinctive golden-yellow hue. The reverse features a bald eagle in flight surrounded by 17 stars, representing the states in the Union at the time of the Lewis and Clark expedition. Inscriptions include 'UNITED STATES OF AMERICA', 'E PLURIBUS UNUM', and 'ONE DOLLAR'. Physically, the coin has a diameter of 26.5 mm and a thickness of 2 mm with a smooth edge. The condition appears to be circulated, displaying a significant amount of dark, uneven patina and surface oxidation, particularly around the edges and within the recessed areas of the design. There are visible contact marks, minor scratches, and a dulling of the original mint luster. The strike quality is standard for business circulation. This series was first introduced in 2000 and the design shown was the standard reverse until 2008. While it lacks a visible date on this side, the style confirms it is a modern American numismatic item produced by the United States Mint.
