The coins in this collection from the Native American Mint reflect a tribe and an animal that held significance to the life and the culture of the tribe.

Their territory expanded from New Jersey, eastern Pennsylvania, and the Delaware River watershed to New York City, western Long Island, and the Lower Hudson Valley.

This coin features the Lenape people and the thoroughbred horse. The horse was an important part of the Native American culture. Today, New Jersey is home to the US Equestrian Team and home to The Thoroughbred Breeders Association.
