The Natchez people were once found living in the lower Mississippi Valley and also along the many tributaries in the area. With strong ties to the water, this tribe was also known to have interacted with some of the very first French colonizers that made their way into what is now known as the American Gulf Coast.

The coins in the Native Dollars Series released by the Native American Mint have been issued a face value, however, they are not legally allowed to be legal tender in the United States. The government recognizes the sovereign nation status of the tribes, which is why they are permitted to issue the face value and back it themselves.
