Each 2024 1 oz Colorized Native America the Beautiful Delaware Silver Coin available here comes with individual packaging. The coins are packaged in a capsule and set within a presentation box by the mint. Each one comes with a Certificate of Authenticity. This particular version of the coin has colorized visuals applied to the obverse, showcasing the natural splendor of Bombay Hook National Wildlife Refuge.
The Lenni Lenape, also known as the Delaware people, originally inhabited a vast area spanning present-day eastern Pennsylvania, New Jersey, southeastern New York, and northern Delaware. This region, which they called “Lenapehoking,” included the Delaware River watershed and extended from the Hudson River to the Potomac.
Obverse designs on the 2024 Colorized NATB Delaware Silver Coin include the image of Canadian geese within Bombay Hook National Wildlife Refuge. The indigenous Lenape people referred to the area as Canaresse, which translates as “at the thickets.” The English name for the area comes from the Dutch “Boombjes Hoeck,” which translates as “little-tree point.”
Reverse visuals on 2024 1 oz Colorized Delaware Silver Coins feature the common visual for the series. In this design, an American bald eagle’s head is at the center of an eight-pointed star. Around the star, there are eight arrowheads between each point of the star.
