WALLE

The United States Mint (Mint) today officially announced the reverse design for the 2023 Native American $1 Coin. The 2023 Native American $1 Coin honors American ballerina Maria Tallchief and American Indians in ballet. Considered to be America’s first prima ballerina, Maria Tallchief broke barriers as a Native American ballerina (Osage Nation) exhibiting strength and resilience both on and off the stage. In addition to Tallchief, four other American Indian ballerinas from Oklahoma achieved international recognition in the 20th century, including her younger sister Marjorie Tallchief, Yvonne Chouteau, Rosella Hightower, and Moscelyne Larkin. Celebrated as the “Five Moons,” their legacy of achievement and inclusion continues to influence ballet today.

Refreshing and well done!!!
Not my favorite. I really like the code talkers and Jim Thorpe.

I don't like the idea of it personally as ballet as I seem to recall is NOT Native American culture....
Well, just Love coins, period.
Nice design. I am not a student of Ballet, so know very little about it. Cheers, RickO
Pass. I'll stick with classical US coins.

Seems to be an interesting subject. I just learned a lot googling the issue 😁

Another spectacular design!
This series is really the only series to have consistently good designs.
The America the Beautiful quarters all had pretty good designs. Other than that pretty much everything in the last 75+ years has been terrible.
Maria Tallchief will also be on a Quarter next year as well.
Seems odd / strange
I’m not going to collect ballet coins.
I never would have guessed you weren't a student of ballet.
