The 2017 Proof Mississippi Choctaw Water Moccasin 1 oz Silver Coin pays tribute to the Choctaw Nation. These people are said to have been descended from the ancient Hopewell and Mississippian tribes that historically lived in what we now know as the southeastern United States. The Choctaw people have long called Mississippi, Alabama, Louisiana, Texas, and Oklahoma home.

Obverse

The obverse design of the 2017 Proof Mississippi Choctaw Water Moccasin 1 oz Silver Coin features the image of the Choctaw Nation tribal member. With a current estimate of around 160,000 members, the Choctaw Nation is one of the largest in the United States. Also on the obverse of the coin is the weight, purity and metal content of this coin.

Reverse

The reverse design of the 2017 Proof Mississippi Choctaw Water Moccasin 1 oz Silver Coin features an image of the venomous water moccasin snake. These snakes hold the distinction of being the only semi-aquatic viper species around the globe. While they are most often found living in streams, marshes, shallow lakes and bayous, they have been seen in the Gulf of Mexico and in the waters of the Atlantic Ocean.

The water moccasin is not often easy to spot in the waters, which is why it is responsible for countless deaths even today.
