Designed by Canadian artist Jori van der Linde, the $1 coins reverse features the artists rendition of the gold discovery that set off the Klondike Gold Rush. Under the shining sun, Keish (Skookum Jim Mason), Shaaw Tla (Kate Carmack), Ka Goox (Dawson Charlie), all of whom were of Lingt and Tagish descent, and George Carmack can be seen panning for gold at the edge of Gh Dek (Rabbit Creek/Bonanza Creek). A powerful symbol of cultural revitalization, the pictorial symbol for dh Ddhch (Moosehide Slide) appears on the opposite side of the creek, and represents the Trondk Hwchin and their deep, abiding connection to the land.
