The coin in question is a 2012 Sacagawea Dollar, part of the United States' one-dollar series that celebrates the contributions of the Shoshone woman Sacagawea to American history. This particular piece is a Proof coin, which is known for its high-quality finish and is typically produced for collectors. Struck from a composite material comprising 88.5% copper, 6% zinc, 3.5% manganese, and 2% nickel, the coin has a total weight of 8.1 grams. With a diameter of 26.5 millimeters, it features a lettered edge, adding to its aesthetic appeal. The coin bears the designs of Glenna Goodacre and Thomas Cleveland, showcasing Sacagawea on the obverse and an image representative of American symbolism on the reverse. This specific Sacagawea Dollar was produced at a mintage of 1,189,445, which offers it a reasonable rarity among collectors, particularly in Proof condition. It does not have a mint mark, suggesting it was not produced at a facility designating a mint mark. Though its declared currency value is one dollar, its collectible value may vary based on its condition and the current market demand for Proof coins within the Sacagawea series. This coin is not only a piece of currency but also a tribute to a significant figure in American history, making it a meaningful item for collectors and history enthusiasts alike.
