American sculptor Glenna Goodacre designed the obverse (heads) of the

Shoshone woman who assisted Lewis and Clark on their exploration of the
Louisiana Purchase almost 200 years ago. The reverse (tails) design of
the coin, by United States Mint Sculptor/Engraver Thomas D. Rogers, Sr.,
features a soaring Bald Eagle and 17 stars, one for each of the states
at the time of the Lewis and Clark Expedition.
