Rolls, bags, and boxes featuring the latest release from the United States Mint launch today at noon ET, showcasing the 2025 Native American $1 Coin. This year’s dollar honors Mary Kawena Pukui – a renowned scholar, author, composer, dancer, and educator. Pukui is the first Native Hawaiian to be recognized in the Mint’s Native American $1 Coin Program.

As part of the release, the U.S. Mint is offering 250-coin boxes, 100-coin bags, and 25-coin rolls of the dollar. Each option includes circulation-quality coins from either the Philadelphia or Denver Mint.

2025 Native American $1 Coin Designs

A likeness of Mary Kawena Pukui graces the reverse (tails side) of each new $1 coin. Designed and sculpted by U.S. Mint Medallic Artist Phebe Hemphill, the portrait depicts Pukui wearing a hibiscus flower, a kukui nut lei, and a muʻumuʻu adorned with an aloha print. Stylized water elements serve as the background.

This design was chosen from among 10 candidates reviewed by Citizens Coinage Advisory Committee (CCAC) and the Commission of Fine Arts (CFA), and the preferences of Pukui’s family.

Encircling the design are the inscriptions "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA," "$1," and "Nānā I Ke Kumu," which translates to "Look to the Source." This phrase is also the title of a series of books co-authored by Pukui in collaboration with the Queen Liliʻuokalani Children’s Center.

The obverse (heads side) of the coin maintains Glenna Goodacre’s enduring design, featured on all previous Native American $1 Coins. It depicts Sacagawea carrying her infant son, Jean Baptiste. Obverse inscriptions include "LIBERTY" and "IN GOD WE TRUST."

Edge inscriptions identify the year of issue, the mint mark, and the motto "E PLURIBUS UNUM."

Maybe in a few years Don Ho, Jay Silverheals, Iron Eyes Cody (Jewish Italian actually). Chief Joseph, Duke Kahanmoku, Sitting Bull, etc. all could be future subjects w great designs…. Oh. Code Talkers also…..

There have been some great designs in silver and gold coins made by the Indian Sovereign Nations / Native American Mint. For instance, Oglala Lakota Sioux Nation Sitting Bull 1-oz 99.9% gold Ltd Ed mintage 499– a very tough one to find.

Ouch– the 2025 W-Proof ASE (25EA) just had a weekly change of minus 18,567 in cumulative sales. But it’s indicative of another trend that I spotted where ASE and M/P sales suffer big losses with the 2nd, 3rd, 4th or 5th week of reported sales after the product is officially released by the Mint: 24EA: minus 25,317 @ 3rd week 23EA: minus 12,838 @ 3rd week 24EG: minus 7,926 @ 5th week 23EG: minus 7,598 @ 3rd week 24EM: minus 13,512 @ 4th week 23EM: minus 2,041 @ 3rd + minus 11,226 @ 4th + minus 2,260 @ 5th week… Read more »

No doubt.

E1,
@ Marshall Tucker Band/Clapton & Frampton talent…
You’re older & wiser than I, and in more ways than one.
But our taste in music seems to be in alignment quite closely.

Here’s another version of “While My Guitar Gently Weeps”.
The guys on stage are no slouches when it comes to talent.
Prince’s guitar solo cemented my opinion that he’s among the top 10 guitarists of all time….

Rich

Nice, Rick. I guess the popular, undisputed Top 3 guitarists of all time would be Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton and Jimmy Page.

Rick

Indeed Rich,
There are a few top guitarist lists out there. And yes, those guys are always top dogs…

How about a quick salute to the unknown youngster Tina S, the 14 year old guitar Prodigy–just for kicks!….Turn your volume up!

Major D

Rich and Rick, this kinda underscores my earlier point about “Top (fill in the number) Lists”. Experts can, and often do, disagree. And there’s nothing wrong with that. Duane Allman, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Muddy Waters, BB King, Alvin Lee, goes on-and-on……

Agree.

Let’s not forget the guy many on any list of best guitarists learned from – Les Paul. The guy virtually invented rock and roll. Check out “How High the Moon”. That song was a full FOUR YEARS ahead of “Rock Around the Clock”. Paul’s precision and inventiveness are off the charts. P.S. – Even though she wasn’t nearly as flashy, Paul’s wife, Mary Ford, was no slouch on the six-string either. P.P.S. – I once saw flamenco guitarist Carlos Montoya live. My God, it was a revelation! The man’s hands were flying all over the guitar. Each 64th/128th note was… Read more »

I’ve always loved the under-appreciated Jeff Lynne’s vocals.

Kaiser, where’d you go? Hope you’re doing well.
