Abstract:

University of North Carolina at Charlotte professor Jamie Franki was one of four artists selected nationwide to design images for the U.S. Mint's Westward Journey Nickel Series. Franki's depiction of an American bison appears on one of the four coins released to commemorate the bicentennials of the Louisiana Purchase and of the historic expedition of Lewis and Clark.
