Legal-Tender Native American Coins: 

Long before America was a nation of states, it was a nation of tribes. To honour these tribes, the coins are also recognised by the Federal Government as legal tender in each tribal nation as set forth in the Constitution of the United States and from the terms of bilateral treaties that date back to the 18th century.
