    The $5 bill, series of 1899 silver certificates featured a portrait of a Native American. His name is well known by Running Antelope became a head chief of the Tatokainyanka in 1851. He was born in 1821 in South Dakota and passed away in 1896. Three years later, his portrait was depicted on the $5 Dollar Bill Silver Certificate. This explains why this note is called by many collectors as the nickname “Indian Chief Note” or “Chief Note”.
