| Obverse description | A spread-winged eagle in full flight occupies the central field, rendered in fine relief against a radially lined background evoking a sunburst pattern. Above the eagle, a traditional Native American bow with a nocked arrow is depicted horizontally across the upper field. The circular legend reads 'JAMUL SOVEREIGN NATION' along the upper rim and 'NATIVE INDIAN NATIONS IN AMERICA' along the lower rim, both inscribed in a stylised, hand-hewn letterform characteristic of Native American-themed coinage. The overall design conveys themes of sovereignty, nature, and Indigenous heritage. |

| Additional information |
Jamul Indian Village is a federally recognized Kumeyaay band located in San Diego County — not a Paiute nation. The naming disconnect here is deliberate: under the Native American $1 Coin Act framework that inspired tribal currency programs, individual nations sometimes issue coins honoring other Indigenous peoples as a form of inter-tribal recognition. Whether that applies here or this reflects a cataloging inconsistency is worth verifying against the issuing documentation before attribution is finalized.
