Warriors Through Time – The Cowboy honors Pat Garrett, one of the American West’s most legendary lawmen. Born in 1850 in Alabama, Garrett was a cowboy before becoming sheriff of Lincoln County, New Mexico. He is best known for ending the reign of the notorious outlaw Billy the Kid, a young gunslinger famed for his daring escapes and skirmishes with the law. Garrett’s life embodies the grit and resolves that defined the frontier, balancing law enforcement with the rugged realities then.
On the obverse, Garrett is depicted as a resolute figure, rendered with the stern determination for which he was known. Surrounding him are iconic elements of the Wild West: the weathered cowboy hat, representing the rugged independence of riders and ranchers; the lever-action rifle, symbolizing survival and law enforcement in the untamed frontier; and the sheriff’s star embodying authority and duty in the unpredictable 19th-century American Southwest. Bold and evocative, this coin offers collectors a powerful tribute to Garrett’s life and the enduring symbols of the Old West.
