The Dakota people are made up of four main bands: Mdewakanton, Wahpekute, Wahpeton, and Sisseton. They have called the region now known as Minnesota home for many generations. Their way of life developed alongside the natural features of the area, including open prairies, clear lakes, and winding rivers.

The Dakota word “Mni Sota” means “clear blue water.” This name reflects the tribe’s connection to the region’s waterways, especially the Minnesota River. Dakota names often describe natural places and help preserve the community’s understanding of the landscape.

The obverse of the 2025 Colorized Native America the Beautiful Minnesota Coin features a Dakota fisherman sitting in a canoe, casting his line into a waterway. The colorized design brings the background to life, representing the lakes and rivers that were central to Dakota culture, providing food, travel routes, and spiritual meaning.

On the reverse of the 2025 1 oz Colorized NATB Minnesota Silver Coin, you’ll see the series’ standard design: a bald eagle head at the center of an eight-pointed star. Each point of the star is paired with an arrowhead, forming a meaningful design that represents Native American identity and heritage.
