No, the outer layer of manganese brass just gives the coin that color.

If you think about it for a few seconds, the price of gold has been well over $1000 an ounce for years. Sacajawea dollars weigh about 1/4 of a troy ounce, which would mean they'd be worth a couple of hundred bucks if they were made of gold. Not even the most boneheaded government bureaucrat would authorize billions of coins worth (say) $200 each and hand them out for a buck apiece.
