Citizens Coinage Advisory Committee 801 Ninth Street, NW, Washington, DC 20220 CCAC July 6, 2011 The Honorable Timothy F. Geithner Secretary of the Treasury Department of the Treasury 1500 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW Washington, D.C. 20220 Dear Secretary Geithner: A public meeting of the Citizens Coinage Advisory Committee (Committee) was held on Monday, June 27, 2011, on the campus of Colorado College in Colorado Springs, Colorado. The Committee reviewed proposed designs for the reverse of the 2012 Native American $1 Coin. After reviewing thirteen (13) candidate designs, the Committee recommended design 2012NA-08. The design, which garnered 17 of the 18 possible points through the Committee’s scoring process, shows a horse and a Native American. The Committee felt the two images appropriately characterized the 2012 design theme of “Trade Routes in the 17th Century” by illustrating the relationship between the horse and Native Americans. Artistically, the design is well-rendered with large clear images and, as a result, will produce a highly attractive reverse design of the 2012 Native American $1 Coin. Sincerely, Gary B. Marks Chair
