Based solely on the fact that they were African Americans, the government issued them second hand items such as uniforms, and inferior horses and equipment. The uniform consisted of a flannel undershirt, a blue top, light blue pants, knee high boots and a Civil War style hat with crossed sabers as the emblem.

Sounds like you are describing a buffalo nickelMoreCorrect, it's a buffalo (a/k/a Indian Head) nickel. Unfortunately the date wore off many early-date buffalo nickels (1913 to 1925) due to a design defect. These coins remain extremely common and sell for 10 to 25 cents in a dealer's "grab box". The design flaw was corrected in 1926 so later buffalo nickels are normally found with intact dates.
The lives of the lakota were linked to the buffalo because the buffalo is how the lakota people lived it was known as the 'walking shop' they got everything from the buffalo like food clothing and blankets and alot more.
Depends on who you are what it means. To Native Americans plains tribes a white buffalo was a sacred animal. As it was tribes like the Dakota Sioux used the buffalo for food, clothing, worship, and anything else they could glean from the buffalo.
IT wouldn't look like anything. The first nickels weren't minted until 1866 and the first buffalo nickels came out in 1913.
