Sitting Bull Commemorative Coin

Sitting Bull, or Tatanka Iyotanka in his native language, was a Teton Dakota Native American chief. He served as a leader for the Sioux tribe, providing political, military, and spiritual guidance.In the 1860s, U.S. troops attempted to push the Native Americans westward onto reservations. Sitting Bull united the Sioux tribes in a fight for their land, leading to the Great Sioux Wars. The warsled to the Battle of Little Bighorn in 1876, where Sitting Bull and the united tribes claimed victory over General George Custer. He resumed leadership of his people in South Dakota later in life.
