The coin in question is a 2010 Sacagawea Dollar, a one-dollar coin minted in the United States of America. Designed by Glenna Goodacre and Thomas Cleveland, this coin features a distinctive representation of Sacagawea, the Shoshone woman notable for her role in the Lewis and Clark expedition. With a diameter of 26.5 mm and a weight of 8.1 grams, this coin is made up of a composite material consisting of 77% copper, 12% zinc, and 1% other metals, all layered over a pure copper core. The coin has a plain edge, characteristic of this series. This particular piece has a mintage of 583,897, indicating that it is part of a limited production type. It does not feature a mint mark, which suggests it may have been produced in a facility where the designation of the mint is not required or indicated. In collector terms, this Sacagawea Dollar represents a unique part of American numismatic history and is a tribute to a significant figure in the exploration of the western frontier. Depending on overall condition and market demand, its value can vary, but as a coin from a special production with a relatively low mintage, it holds potential interest for collectors and enthusiasts alike.
