CoinWorld - Alaska's State Legislature has passed a resolution seeking the Treasury Department to have the U.S. Mint strike 5 million 2020 Native American dollars for release into general circulation in Alaska.
Native Alaskan anti-discrimination activist Elizabeth Peratrovich is depicted on the reverse of the coin.
Jeff Turner, a spokesman for Alaska Gov. Mike Dunleavy, told Coin World Jan. 29 that the governor was awaiting receipt of the resolution for him to sign, before sending correspondence to the Mint and Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin seeking the dollar coin production for circulation distribution and asking if the initiative is possible.
