| Obverse description | Central device depicts the Jamul Sovereign Nation emblem: a tall pine tree in the field, framed by two crossed feathered arrows and flanked by decorative feather sprays at the base, with a soaring eagle above. The design is rendered in a polished relief against a proof mirror field. The legend JAMUL SOVEREIGN NATION arcs along the upper periphery, while NATIVE INDIAN NATIONS IN AMERICA curves along the lower periphery, both separated by diamond-shaped ornamental stops. |

| Additional information |
Jamul Indian Village, a federally recognized Kumeyaay community in San Diego County, is among the smallest tribal nations in the United States by land area — the reservation covers roughly six acres. Tribal tokens of this type circulate within gaming and sovereign commerce contexts where federal currency law grants tribes considerable latitude. The Tuscarora attribution is geographically curious; the Tuscarora are an Iroquoian people originally from North Carolina, later adopted into the Haudenosaunee Confederacy in 1722 after devastating colonial wars forced their northward migration.
