| Additional information |
The Mesa Grande Band, a federally recognized Kumeyaay tribe in San Diego County, gained the legal authority to issue coins through the American Indian Tribal Sovereignty Act. The red wolf depicted here has been extinct in the wild across the American Southwest for decades, surviving only through captive breeding programs — its appearance on a tribal issue from a California nation carries pointed jurisdictional weight given ongoing federal disputes over Endangered Species Act enforcement on sovereign lands.
