What is a 2014-S Native Hospitality Native American Dollar Proof worth?
Age alone gives this coin a small premium, even worn. Sharp details and original surfaces push it higher.
What would make yours worth more:
- Grade and, for proofs, strong cameo contrast
- A die variety or minting error
For market prices, check recent sold results for certified coins in the same grade.
Quick answers
- Is the 2014-S Native Hospitality Native American Dollar Proof rare?
- Not especially. The Mint made 1,144,190 for collectors. Most were kept in their original packaging.
- Is the 2014-S Native Hospitality Native American Dollar Proof silver?
- No. It's manganese brass (88.5% copper, 6% zinc, 3.5% manganese, 2% nickel). Circulating silver dollars ended with the 1935 Peace dollar. Some Eisenhower dollars with an S mint mark were made in 40% silver for collectors, but circulation Ike dollars are copper-nickel clad.
- Where is the mint mark on a 2014 Sacagawea Dollar?
- On the edge, incused with the date. On this coin the mark is S, for San Francisco.
- How many 2014-S Native Hospitality Native American Dollar proofs were made?
- 1,144,190.
What to check on your 2014-S
- Make sure the mint mark really is an S. A worn or filled mark can be misread. It's what separates your coin from the 2014-P (3.1 million made).
- Judge the grade under good light. Golden dollars tarnish easily, so bright original color matters. Check Sacagawea's cheek and the eagle's feathers for wear.
Proofs from 2014 come with and without frosted devices. Coins with strong contrast are labeled Cameo or Deep Cameo and are worth more.
The story of the 2014-S Native Hospitality
The first Native American reverses (2009 to 2015)
In 2009 the reverse began changing every year to honor a Native American contribution to American history: the Three Sisters of corn, beans and squash in 2009, the Great Law of Peace in 2010, the Wampanoag treaty in 2011, trade routes in 2012, the treaty with the Delawares in 2013, Native hospitality in 2014 and the Mohawk ironworkers in 2015. Glenna Goodacre's portrait of Sacagawea stayed on the obverse.
The date and mint mark moved to the edge in 2009, lettered with E PLURIBUS UNUM, so the edge is where you check which mint made your coin. A law of 2007 required that at least a fifth of all dollar coins struck each year carry the Native American design, which kept production going even when demand was low.
How to recognize it
The Native Hospitality design
This 2014 reverse shows a Native American man offering a pipe while his wife offers provisions of fish, corn, roots and gourds. Behind them is a stylized compass face marked NW, pointing to the region the Lewis and Clark Expedition explored between 1804 and 1806. Tribes along the route supplied the expedition with food, horses, shelter and guidance. That help was essential to its success. Chris Costello designed the reverse through the Mint's Artistic Infusion Program.
The Sacagawea Dollar design
Glenna Goodacre's obverse shows Sacagawea looking over her shoulder while carrying her infant son, Jean Baptiste. From 2000 to 2008 the reverse showed a soaring eagle by Thomas Rogers. From 2009 each year has a new reverse on a Native American theme and the date and mint mark moved to the edge. The golden color comes from a manganese brass outer layer.
