Is a gold or brass one-dollar coin with picture of Pocahontas on the obverse and Pocahontas on the reverse hoeing corn with no date on it real?
This is a US dollar coin from 2009 or later. At the same time the Presidential Dollar series is being released, one new "Native American" coin is released every year. The first in this series was released in 2009 and is the one you mention.
To clear up several questions and misconceptions:
> Yes, the coin is made of brass. Gold is FAR too expensive to make into large circulating coins.
> The coin DOES have a date, it's on the coin's edge.
> The Native American woman depicted on the front of the coin is an interpretation of the famous guide Sacajawea rather than Pocahontas.
> The woman on the back is a generic image.
