1 Dollar

Los Coyotes is one of the most isolated reservations in California — a 35,000-acre tract in the San Bernardino Mountains with a population that has historically numbered in the dozens. Tribal gaming never took hold here the way it did for larger nations, leaving the band with an exceptionally limited revenue base. This brass dollar belongs to a wave of tribal currency issues that emerged in the 2000s and early 2010s, largely as collector-market fundraising instruments rather than functional tender redeemable within a tribal economy.
