The Mosopelea were part of the Siouan language family, sharing connections with other tribes like the Dakota, Lakota, and Crow. They were skilled in farming, growing crops such as corn, beans, and squash, while also hunting the local wildlife for their needs.

On the obverse of the 2024 Proof NATB Kentucky Silver Coins, you’ll see members of the Mosopelea tribe walking the Warrior’s Path. This trail, known to Americans as the Cumberland Gap, is a natural passage through the Cumberland Mountains, linking Kentucky, Virginia, and Tennessee. It has a deep historical connection to the Mosopelea and other tribes in the region.

The reverse side of the 2024 1 oz Proof Native America the Beautiful Silver Coin features a bald eagle. This design is a common element in the series, with the eagle’s head at the center of an eight-pointed star, and arrowheads placed between each point of the star.
