The U.S. Mint has commissioned five tribes to make pouches for the Lewis and Clark Bicentennial silver dollar.

The coins will be issued next year. Only 50,000 will be sold with the special pouch.

The pouches will be made of leather and contain beadwork. Each of the five tribes is producing a different version.
