Sioux Bullion Series
The Great Sioux Nation consists of groups of Native American tribes and First Nations peoples in North America. The tribes are comprised mostly of the two language groups, the Lakota and Dakota, which means "the allies." Inception of this popular series began in 2015, and it continues to offer exclusive Sioux designs representing the tribes with great dignity and honor while also pairing with top notch quality. This Native American coin series is expected to be an annual release.

Native American Tepees
Tepees or tipis are the name of dwellings used by American Indians. Typically, they were constructed of poles arranged and fastened into a conical frame covered by animal skins. A hole was left in the top for smoke to escape and a flap was created to allow movement in and out of the tepee. Although these structures were highly mobile, the design still provided a solid shelter for the American Indians. They were used by hunter-gatherer tribes like the Plains Indians who killed bison, deer, elk and other game animals for food. Furthermore, they were often decorated elaborately with pictures of animals, gods and tribal symbols that had strong meaning for the owner.

Customer Reviews

"Amazing service and hospitality from the staff at IDC! Jason was so attentive and patient in our search for our ideal watches. He took us through several options, had us try every watch we were interested in, took our information and continued searching for options. A few hours later, we had our watches on hold and ready for pick up! He located a watch that I LOVE, and a unique piece for my husband. We are grateful to have found our new Jeweler for many pieces to come!"
