The seller paid $34k last year and I assume at this moment he or she will clear just south of $50k on the sale of the coin. 47% gain or potentially more? Not bad at all.

Speaking of…
Number 45 FHG Privy is looking good for the seller.
With 3 days to go, the current bidder has commited to pay $54,560 for the coin. I could see an Invoice approaching $60k for the winner on this one. Not a bad ROI imo…

You’re right, I spaced that you already have one.

Who knows, maybe you do have the last one, or #3…

“PS: That #1 2024-W should command some big money as well – will you give that one a go? My guess on that one is $100k.”

Nah. I’ve already got the coin. I don’t need the first, or the last, for that matter. I just want one (like #3 of the FHG Privy).

“Who am I kidding? I’m in but not for some of the prices listed in our predictions.”

Whoa Bro, You’re a big-time player REB. I wish you good luck!
PS: That #1 2024-W should command some big money as well – will you give that one a go? My guess on that one is $100k.

Interestingly, NONE of the seven 2000-W (P?) Sacs are PF-70. They’re all 69s.

Whew, I may be off the hook! The coins were minted in June 1999 as a “pattern” for the 2000 release of the Sacagawea Dollar. I know. It’s a technicality but it might serve as a useful excuse/rationalization if I can’t obtain one.

Who am I kidding? I’m in but not for some of the prices listed in our predictions. I’ll certainly be watching closely starting at high noon EST on the 12th.

The SC quarter/Sac dollar mule with both sides’ connection to Tom Rogers is truly fascinating. Has Rogers ever commented on this coincidence? Thanks for the tidbit, Cali.

*These coins were struck using specially prepared dies and planchets. They exhibit a duller satiny finish versus the brighter appearance on circulation strikes. They were also struck on a press that was calibrated to strike medals and coins for uncirculated mint sets, i.e. struck at a slower speed and higher pressure to bring up the relief of the designs.

Additional Sacagawea numismatic noteworthy news, Mike Castle passed away on August 14, 2025 in Greenville DE, he was 86. He was the former Governor of Delaware and a former congressman as well. While as a member of the U.S. House Committee on Financial Services, his actions included spearheading legislation that resulted in the circulating commemorative 50 State quarter dollars and Sacagawea dollar programs. Coin World published a piece titled: “Delaware legislator Michael Castle passes at age 86”, on August 21, by Paul Gilkes. Paul wrote: “During his tenure in Congress, Mr. Castle was recognized for his immense interest in numismatics.

In 1995, Mr. Castle drafted and introduced the legislation that created the American Eagle platinum bullion coin first introduced in 1997.

Mr. Castle subsequently sponsored the legislation that created the 50 State quarter dollars program (1999 to 2008), Sacagawea dollar (2000 to 2008), Presidential dollar coins (2007 to 2016, 2020), America the Beautiful quarter dollars programs (2010 to 2021), and several commemorative coins, including the 2006 silver dollars honoring Benjamin Franklin, one of Mr. Castle’s fifth great-grandfathers.”

Additionally, on the NEXT PAGE hyperlink(bottom right in blue) of the link(below) to “Sacagawea Dollars VIP Strikes” that talks about the 2000 D and P VIP Sacagawea Dollars, they talk about another special 2000 D Sacagawea Dollar, that is different from what had gone into circulation. “Denver Mint Employee Appreciation Sacagawea Dollar”(Approx 600). In 2007, apparently the Philadelphia Mint offered a similar program to their employees, however the coins were no different from those intended for or entering circulation.

PSS On November 28, 2007 Thomas D Rogers Sr, designer of the Sacagawea’s 2000-2008 reverse design, regarding the information contained in, at or on “Small Dollars”‘dot com. “”……your website really rocks!  You don’t just have a website about small dollars….In my estimation
