Paying Tribute To Mohican Culture And History

The Native American Mint’s coin sets honoring different tribes continues with the 2022 Mohican Tribe Set. The Mohican are an Eastern Algonquian Native American tribe that historically spoke an Algonquian language and lived in the upper tidal Hudson River Valley. After 1680, conflicts with the powerful Mohawks to the west, many Mohicans were driven across the present-day Massachusetts western border. American writer James Fenimore Cooper provided everlasting fame to the tribe through his 1826 novel The Last of the Mohicans, which painted a romanticized image of the Mohicans with his portrayal of Chingachgook and Uncas, the book’s titular characters.

Legal-Tender Native American Coins

Long before America was a nation of states, it was a nation of tribes. To honor these tribes, the Torrance, California-based Native American Mint struck a series of Indian Sovereign Nations coins that are authorized by each tribe. The coins are also recognized by the Federal Government as legal tender in each tribal nation as set forth in the Constitution of the United States and from the terms of bilateral treaties that date back to the 18th century.

One-Year-Only Designs Honor Mohican Culture

The Mohican Tribe Six-Piece Set features six different obverse designs depicting images important to Mohican culture, tradition, and history. The designs include weapons, a warrior, and a half-man-half wolf image that’s significant because during colonial times the French referred to the Mohicans as the Loups (“Wolves”). One coin also features a portrait of Etoh Oh Kaum of the Turtle Clan, who was one several First Nation leaders who visited England’s Queen Anne in 1710. Every coin is official Indian Sovereign Nations legal tender with a one-cent, five-cent, 10-cent, 25-cent, 50-cent, and $1 coin. Each coin comes in original Brilliant Uncirculated (BU) condition and the entire set comes packaged in a blister pack that displays both the front and back of all six coins. Secure yours today!
