| Reverse description | Central motif of a Virginia opossum depicted in high relief, shown emerging from a branch or log within a six-pointed star composed of interlaced triangles, the geometric framework filling the central field. The animal is rendered in naturalistic style with fine fur detailing and a forward-facing gaze. The legend CHOCTAW TRIBES arcs along the upper periphery, while QUARTER DOLLAR and the date 2018 appear along the lower periphery, all lettered in a stylised hand-inscribed script consistent with the obverse. |

| Additional information |
This piece is part of the Native American $1 Coin Act program — but that covers dollars, not quarters. A copper-nickel quarter at 6.3g attributed to the Jamul Indian Village merits scrutiny: Jamul, a small Kumeyaay band in San Diego County, has not issued federally recognized coinage, and no U.S. Mint program produced a Choctaw-themed quarter in 2018 under tribal authority. The America the Beautiful series ran quarters through 2021, but none attributed to Jamul. This cataloging may conflate separate issues or reflect a privately minted novelty piece.
