The people of the Chickasaw Nation are recognized today as the 13th largest tribe in the federal registry in the United States. The members of the tribe are, historically, related to the Choctaw people and have a common history. During the Colonial Era in North America, the Chickasaw had various contacts with explorers and traders of French, English, and Spanish backgrounds. It was this contact that would eventually lead to strife though.

On the obverse of 2019 1 oz Proof Silver Alabama Chickasaw Coyote Coins is the portrait of a tribal figure. The Chickasaw Nation has a modern population of roughly 38,000 people, the vast majority of whom now live in Oklahoma. Formerly known as the Indian Territory, Oklahoma is not the original home of Chickasaw people.
The Chickasaw, prior to the arrival of Europeans and expansion of America, lived in the western plains of the United States. The Chickasaw later moved east of the Mississippi River during the Colonial Era. The Chickasaw settled in northeastern Mississippi near Pontotoc Creek, as well as within Lawrence County in southern Tennessee and western portions of Alabama.

There are a total of 19 different coyote subspecies in the world today, with most spread throughout North and Central America. The coyote is a versatile species that continues to adapt to environments altered by humans, and as of 2013 was spotted in urban areas of the Eastern US and a side of the Panama Canal never before seen.
