Collectors who are of Native American ancestry and those who respect the rich history of Native Americans are sure to love this piece from the Oglala Sioux Nation. The coin honors Geronimo, an Apache leader who fiercely defended his people's land. His surrender ended up being the final significant conflict between the U.S. government and the Apache, and he spent 27 years as a prisoner of war after it.
