<p>[QUOTE="Indianhead65, post: 244790, member: 103422"]I totally agree. Sacagawea wasnt the only Native American that made a name for her/him self. There were plenty of Native American warriors that were famous in their own right and likewise deserve to be depicted on the obverse of a circulating American coin. Sitting Bull, Geronimo, Victorio, Quanah, Cochise, Chief Joseph and Crazy Horse just to name a very few. They sacrificed their lives and the lives of their people to try and save what was once theirs, the only way of life that they knew, living off of the land and being one with the earth. They loved this country also, a long time before the white men came to "tame" the west. I would support a law to mint these coins and would encourage my congressman to do so also. My Native American ancestors probably wouldnt like the idea of their likeness being on a "government" coin but I would collect them.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
