2025-S Native American $1 - Mary Kawena Pukui Gem Proof
This modern dollar coin from the San Francisco Mint celebrates the legacy of Mary Kawena Pukui. Struck as a brilliant Gem Proof, the coin is composed of a unique copper alloy blend that includes zinc, manganese, and nickel, giving it a distinctive golden appearance. The front of the coin displays the familiar portrait of Sacagawea carrying her young son on her back, accompanied by the classic inscriptions of liberty and trust. On the reverse side, the design honors Mary Kawena Pukui, shown wearing an aloha print dress and a traditional lei made of kukui nuts, with a blossom tucked into her hair. The background features flowing water alongside the Hawaiian phrase "Nana I Ke Kumu," a powerful instruction meaning "Look to the Source." Unlike many standard issues, the essential details of this coin are incused directly onto its edge. Rotating the dollar reveals the year 2025, the "S" mint mark representing its San Francisco origin, and the traditional motto "E Pluribus Unum."
