It's called a Sacagawea dollar and honors the Native American woman who guided Lewis and Clark for part of their expedition to the northwest part of what's now the U.S.
Sacagawea dollars have been issued every year since 2000, although coins dated 2002-2008 were made only for collectors.
Also, please remember that the coins are brass, not real gold. There are polls indicating that a ridiculous number of people are hoarding the coins because they falsely believe they are worth far more than $1. However if you were to melt one you'd be left with about 8 or 9 cents worth of scrap metal.
