Why Are There 17 Stars On The Sacagawea Coin?
By GovMint :
Sacagawea Dollar Coins feature 17 stars on the reverse design, representing the number of states in the Union at the time of the Lewis and Clark expedition, which took place from 1804 to 1806. This design choice is a nod to the state of the young American nation at the time of Sacagawea's journey with the expedition.
The Sacagawea Dollar was issued from 2000 to 2008. In 2009, the series transitioned to the modern Native American Dollar series, which is still issued today.
