Sacagawea Dollar 2020-S Proof

The Sacagawea Dollar surprised collectors, when it was first released, due to its beautifully golden surface. Although this coin looks like gold, it is actually comprised of a heavy copper-nickel alloy, that makes it stand out among other US dollars. Collectors enjoy the ease of the Sacagawea collection, since most minted are reserved for collecting purposes only. Sacagawea Dollars are available in perfect brilliant uncirculated or proof condition, making for a stunning collection. In 2016, the US Mint decided to change the series and honor Native American history on the reverse of the Sacagawea dollars. The 2020-S Proof Sacagawea Dollar honors the historical Shoshone Native American, by having her portrait on the obverse of the coin. The reverse design displays a portrait of Elizabeth Peratrovich. Her activism to destroy discrimination against Alaskan Natives led to the Anti-Discrimination Law of 1945.
