2026 Native American $1 Coin Rolls & Bags Now Available

February 2, 2026

WASHINGTON, Feb. 2, 2026 - The United States Mint (Mint) announces that the 2026 Native American $1 Coin Rolls & Bags honoring Polly Cooper and the Oneida Indian Nation was released for purchase on Tuesday, January 27 at noon EST.

The 2026 coin celebrates the Oneida Indian Nation who were early supporters of the American cause. The tribe assisted American forces during the Revolutionary War. At the invitation of General George Washington, a contingent of Oneida warriors joined Americans at Valley Forge, Pennsylvania. They travelled hundreds of miles on foot carrying supplies and bushels of dried white corn to feed the starving troops, a gift organized by Oneida Chief Shenandoah.

Oral tradition credits Polly Cooper (depicted on the coin's reverse), an Oneida woman, with cooking and teaching the soldiers how to prepare the corn, which required proper preparation to be edible. After many of her fellow Oneidas returned home, Cooper remained with the Continental Army and continued to provide aid throughout the long harsh winter.

Including the Oneida Indian Nation and Polly Cooper in the America 250 Semiquincentennial celebration honors not only their extraordinary service to the Continental Army, but also the vital role that Native allies played in shaping the nation's earliest story.
