Kamehameha the Great is honored throughout Hawaii for uniting the Hawaiian Islands in 1795.
He proved to be a wise and gifted ruler and became a true father to his people. His famous
statue is prominently displayed in front of Iolani Palace. Kamehameha exemplified the essence
of Hawaii's greatness.
Announcement: $20 Kamehameha Dala |

King Kalakaua was known as the "Merry Monarch" for his music and the Hawaiian Renaissance
he brought to his island nation. He revived the hula, built Iolani Palace, was the first reigning
monarch to travel around the world and issued Hawaii's only silver coinage in 1883.

The beloved last monarch of the Kingdom of Hawaii is commemorated on the Queen Liliuokalani Dala.
Overthrown by American forces and then imprisoned in Iolani Palace, the Queen called out to her
fellow Christians of her tragic fate.

There is no doubt that the Princess design is the most beautiful of all the Mint's work over
the past 33 years. Based on the original Huth design of 1984, the Princess Dala commemorates
Hawaii's tragic Heir Apparent.

Kamehameha was bigger, stronger and fiercer in battle than anyone. After the Battle of Nuuanu,
Kamehameha became a true father to his people and proved to be as wise as he was brutal in battle.
He maintained the ancient traditions, welcomed the innovations and was the first Hawaiian to accept
gold and silver as money.

The Polynesians discovered Hawaii in the first century according to the latest carbon tests.
The 2000th anniversary of this historic event was commemorated with the legendary Ho'omaha'o Dala
in 2000. The design is based on live sketches that feature two native Hawaiians at the time of
discovery by John Webber, the official artist on Captain James Cook's ship when he discovered Hawaii
in 1778.
