Mojojojo Valued Member United States 427 Posts	Posted Yesterday 2:42 pm With the subject matter on the reverse relating to Revolutionary War, is this considered a Semi Q release? Report this Post to the Staff

nfine Pillar of the Community United States 3495 Posts	Posted Yesterday 3:12 pm In my humble opinion, the Native American dollar is a 2026 coin, not a Semi-Q release. Although the reverse does feature a Revolutionary War theme, there is no 1776-2026 dual date, no 250 privy mark, and no mention in the Semi-Q products. The Innovation dollar coins feature a 250 privy mark and the Trump dollar features the privy mark and dual date. Here's what the mint has to say about the 2026 Native American dollar release. The Native American $1 Coin Program was established to honor and recognize the important contributions made by Indian tribes and individual Native Americans. For 2026, the obverse (heads) design continues to feature a portrait of the central figure of Sacagawea carrying her infant son Jean-Baptiste. Inscriptions are "LIBERTY" and "IN GOD WE TRUST." The coins continue to retain their distinctive edge lettering and golden color. The reverse (tails) portrays Polly Cooper holding a basket as she shares the Oneidas' gift of corn with General Washington, who holds his hat in an expression of gratitude and respect. The design represents the generosity, courage, and sacrifice of the Oneida during the American Revolutionary War. The inscriptions are "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA," "POLLY COOPER," "$1," and "ONEIDA ALLIES AT VALLEY FORGE," which pays tribute to an important Native American ally and its contributions to the Continental Army.

Thats what I am thinking as well, which makes it the only coin that did not get any special design, privy mark or duel date to celebrate the Semi-Q. Report this Post to the Staff
jbuck Moderator United States 193305 Posts	Posted Yesterday 4:23 pm A dual date might have happened if they had not ruined the design with edge lettering. I will add that the date is more important than IGWT, to me at least.

Dearborn Moderator United States 103388 Posts	Posted Yesterday 5:38 pm I have to agree with jbuck, This 'could' have been a nice semi-Q coin, but the mint fumbled badly here. Collecting since 1972.

1910S_1C Valued Member United States 80 Posts	Posted Yesterday 7:46 pm Edited to reflect further research Whether the 2026 Native American dollar is a SemiQ release is up for debate, and depends on how you define "SemiQ release" If you define it narrowly as only encompassing coins authorized for the semiquincentennial under the Circulating Collectible Coin Redesign Act of 2020, then only one dollar coin, the one depicting President Trump, qualifies as such a release. If, however, you mean coins regarded by the mint as part of the broader semiQ program in general, then yes, the Native American dollar absolutely qualifies. The choice of the Revolutionary War as a theme was likely in deference to the semiquincentennial, and although the coin legally remains separate from the CCCRA semiQ releases, the mint expressly lists it as a "collectible product" as part of its semiquincentennial program. https://www.usmint.gov/news/media-k...m-18209af0b1 Not to derail the discussion, but this page drops a couple of hints that the Trump coin might actually circulate. It is listed under the "circulating coins" section, and the mint explicitly says "dollar that will appear in your pocket change in 2026" in reference to the coin.

They could have made a dual date with the edge lettering, there is plenty of space. They also could have added a Privy like they used for the AI dollars. Report this Post to the Staff
