| Reverse description | Central design portrays a forward-facing bust of a Native American chief wearing a large full feathered war bonnet, rendered in detailed relief. The chief holds a ceremonial pipe or staff extending to the upper right. A decorative horizontal band with geometric patterning separates the portrait from the lower exergue. Thirteen five-pointed stars are arranged in a ring around the portrait in the field. The legend 'APACHE TRIBES' arcs across the upper border, while the denomination 'ONE DOLLAR' and date '2016' appear in the lower exergue. |

| Additional information |
Jamul Indian Village is a federally recognized Kumeyaay band located in San Diego County — not an Apache community — making the "Apache tribes" branding on this piece a commercial choice rather than a cultural one. Native American gaming tribes gained authority to issue dollar-denomination coins under the 1988 Indian Gaming Regulatory Act's broader sovereignty provisions, and Jamul itself only opened its casino, Hollywood Casino, in 2016 after decades of legal battles with the state of California.
These pieces circulate as gaming tokens rather than legal tender in any conventional sense.
