| Additional information |
The Jamul Indian Village is a federally recognized Kumeyaay band located in San Diego County, California — which makes the "Osage tribes" attribution on this piece immediately curious. Jamul has no historical or political connection to the Osage Nation of Oklahoma. Whether this reflects a licensing arrangement, a third-party private mint issuing under tribal authority, or a simple cataloging error is worth verifying before the piece is described further.
