2019-S USA Sacagawea $1 (Native American Series) “Indians in Space” PR70DCAM { PCGS-4 }. This is another “Three-fer” sans QE2 featuring “Sacagawea” #14, “Native Woman” #63 and “Young Woman Writing” #90 illustrated in Mary Golda Ross of the Cherokee Nation in the reverse foreground writing formulas on a piece of paper with a panorama of her career coming to life behind her. But this coin is in the slot for Sacagawea, a Native America who joined Lewis and Clark on their historic exploration of this country beyond the Mississippi. Her help along the way dealing with various tribes proved invaluable, and they did successfully reach the Pacific proving that a land-crossing of this continent was possible, even if it was not easy. Nice mirrors and heavy device frosting enhance eye appeal for this modern gem. Be sure to check out the flip-side, where Mary Golda Ross is shown as a young woman who acquired degrees in mathematics, mastering every available course on astronomy and dreaming of interplanetary space travel, a passion she kept to herself at first in order as a woman to be taken seriously. She became an engineer and helped develop the Agena spacecraft for Gemini and Apollo (seen behind her to the left). She lived long enough to see John Herrington of the Chickasaw Nation walking in space (seen on upper right edge) at the International Space station made possible by the foundation she laid. Above her are the stars she dreamed of as a girl. My preference was to use this for the "Young Woman Writing" slot; but PCGS ruled that it could only be put in the Sacagawea slot, having already removed Sacagawea coins from a number of sets including them in the "Native Woman" slot. This gem displays reflective mirrors and this series introduced the world to an obscure Native American who was invaluable during the early development of this country. Hoping that perhaps this new design would stir interest in using the dollar coin, it fared about the same as the Susie B and morphed from a standard eagle reverse to an annual glimpse of Native American contributions to the history of the USA. Mary Golda Ross made a long lifetime of contributions to this country that may have largely gone unnoticed at the time. It's fitting to honor her life here.
