| Reverse description | Central field depicts a detailed relief of a walrus resting on an ice floe, with a rocky arctic coastline rendered in the background. The legend ESKIMO TRIBES arcs along the upper periphery of the coin. Centered below the legend, the denomination 25 CENT appears in a stylized runic-influenced lettering, flanked by decorative arrow motifs. Two small diamond ornaments flank the central design at left and right. The date 2016 appears in the lower exergue, set within a curved decorative frame. |

| Additional information |
Jamul Indian Village, a Kumeyaay band in San Diego County, issues these tokens under the authority granted to federally recognized tribes to produce their own coinage — a right that has generated legal friction with the U.S. Mint on multiple occasions since the 1990s. Most tribal issues of this type circulate exclusively within casino properties and hold no legal tender status outside them.
