Jamul Indian Village is a Kumeyaay band based in San Diego County, California — nowhere near Nebraska, and nowhere near catfish country. The Native American dollar program, authorized under the 2000 Native American Tourism and Improving Visitor Experience Act framework and administered through agreements with private mints, permits federally recognized tribes to issue legal tender coins regardless of geographic or cultural connection to the subject. Nebraska's channel catfish appears here because the program sells topical series, not because Jamul has any tie to the Great Plains watershed.
