Description

The 2000 (D) Sacagawea Dollar represents a Denver Mint issue from the Sacagawea & Native American Dollars 2000 to Date series. The U.S. Mint produced 518.9 million examples, making this the lowest mintage among 3 mint variants, representing only 25% of total production. The obverse features Sacagawea carrying her infant son Jean Baptiste Crapeau on her back and the reverse displays rotating designs honoring Native American contributions to the United States. The reverse depicts a soaring bald eagle encircled by 17 stars representing the states in the Union at the time of the Lewis and Clark expedition. This original design by Thomas D. Rogers Sr. was used for all Sacagawea dollars from 2000 through 2008. First year of the Sacagawea Dollar. The "Cheerios Dollar" variety with detailed tail feathers (from coins distributed in Cheerios cereal boxes) is a valuable modern rarity. Glenna Goodacre Presentation Dollars in 22-karat gold finish were given to the designer. The Denver Mint, which grew from an 1860s gold rush assay office, has served as a major production facility since 1906. Estimated market value ranges from $1 to $11 depending on grade and condition. Struck in 88.5% copper, 6% zinc, 3.5% manganese and 2% nickel, weighing 8.1 grams, 26.5 mm in diameter, with a plain edge. Cataloged as PCGS #9585.
