2016 Canada $50 Wanduta Portrait of a Chief Fine Silver Coin (TAX Exempt) 154198

In a time when certain cultural practices of Canada's Aboriginal peoples were regulated or prohibited, individuals such as Wanduta risked prosecution to safeguard their sacred traditions. This fine silver coin honours the Dakota Elder and spiritual healer for his dedication to preserving cultural rites such as ceremonial dances, which are an integral expression of their Dakota identity.
