Owner Comments:

On May 19, 1998, the Treasury department formed the Dollar Coin Design Advisory Committee (DCDAC) to select a design for the new dollar coin. Three weeks later, the DCDAC recommended that the new dollar coin bear a design of Liberty represented by Sacagawea, the Native American woman who assisted Lewis and Clark on their exploration of the American West in 1804-1806.

On May 4, 1999, the Mint unveiled the selected design for the Sacagawea Dollar coin at a White House ceremony. Artist Glenna Goodacre portrayed Sacagawea in three-quarter profile. On her back, she carried her infant son Jean Baptiste. Six months pregnant when she joined the expedition, Sacagawea gave birth to Jean Baptiste early in the journey. Thomas D. Rogers designed the reverse, featuring a soaring eagle encircled by 17 stars, representing the number of states at the time Lewis and Clark began their westward odyssey. The Sacagawea coin was released to the public in January, 2000.
