The Artistry Behind the Coin

Obverse: The obverse showcases Glenna Goodacre's beloved portrait of Sacagawea, the courageous Shoshone guide who accompanied the Lewis and Clark expedition. She carries her infant son, Jean Baptiste, on her back in a traditional cradleboard, her face turned toward the horizon with quiet determination. The design captures the spirit of exploration, maternal strength, and the vital role Native Americans played in westward expansion.

Reverse: The 2009 reverse design beautifully illustrates the "Three Sisters" agricultural method, showing corn stalks rising tall, bean vines climbing their sturdy stems, and squash plants spreading their broad leaves at the base. This ingenious companion planting technique, developed over centuries by Native American farmers, created a sustainable ecosystem where each plant supported the others. The corn provided structure, the beans fixed nitrogen in the soil, and the squash leaves shaded the ground to retain moisture and suppress weeds. This agricultural innovation was shared with struggling colonists around 1000 A.D., ensuring their survival and forever changing American agriculture.

Why Collectors Choose This Piece

The full 25-coin roll format offers exceptional value, providing multiple examples for trading, gifting to fellow collectors, or preserving as a long-term investment.
