Description

Produced at the Philadelphia Mint, the 2000 (P) Leif Ericson Millennium Commemorative Dollar is part of the Modern Commemorative Dollars (1982-Date) series. With a mintage of 28,100, this is a scarce issue — the scarcer of two mint variants, with 16% of total production. The obverse features designs varying by commemorative issue, authorized by Congress to honor significant American events, people, and institutions and the reverse displays designs varying by commemorative issue. A modern issue from an era of rotating coin designs, collector-focused programs, and renewed interest in numismatic artistry. Coined at the Philadelphia facility, the nation's original mint that has operated continuously since its 1792 founding. Auction record: $863 MS70 01-14-2008 David Lawrence RC. Struck in 90% silver, 10% copper, weighing 26.73 grams, 38.1 mm in diameter, with a reeded edge. Cataloged as PCGS #9785.
