| Obverse description | Central design features a bovine skull with prominent curved horns, entwined by a large serpent whose coils extend across the field. The composition is set against a dream catcher web motif, flanked on either side by decorated feather and bead arrangements. The legend 'JAMUL SOVEREIGN NATION' curves along the upper periphery, while 'NATIVE INDIAN NATIONS IN AMERICA' arcs along the lower periphery, both rendered in a stylized Native American-inspired lettering. The coin is struck in proof finish with a mirrored field contrasting against frosted relief elements. |

| Additional information |
Jamul Indian Village is a Kumeyaay community located in San Diego County, California — not affiliated with the Kiowa, a Southern Plains people historically centered in Oklahoma. The attribution of "Kiowa tribes" to a Jamul-issued piece is either a marketing decision by the private minting contractor or a catalog error; either way, it warrants scrutiny before acquisition.
