Most 2000 Sacagawea one-dollar coins that were in general circulation are only worth their face value, $1 . However, certain rare error coins and those in pristine, uncirculated condition can be significantly more valuable.
Here’s a breakdown of potential values depending on the specific type of 2000 Sacagawea Dollar:
- Face Value: $1.
- Slight Premium: Some older rolls might sell for a small premium over face value.
- Cheerios Sacagawea Dollars: These were part of a promotion where some coins were included in Cheerios boxes. They feature a more detailed tail feather design on the eagle’s back. Estimates suggest only 60-70 of these coins exist, and their value can range from $5,000 to $25,000 or more.
- Goodacre Presentation Coins: These are 2000-D coins that were part of a special presentation, [according to Coin ID Scanner] . These coins are already graded by a third party (like ICG, NGC, or PCGS) and can sell for $400-$3,000+.
- “Wounded Eagle” Error: Some 2000-P Sacagawea Dollars have an error where the eagle appears “wounded” or flawed. These coins can fetch values from $250 to $5,000+.
- Off-Center Strike Errors: Coins with off-center strikes can be worth $100-$1,000+.
- Mule Errors: These are very rare errors where a 2000 Sacagawea obverse (heads) is combined with the reverse (tails) of another coin, such as a Washington quarter. Only a few of these are known to exist, and one sold for $102,000 at auction. Another variety of this error with a Washington quarter obverse and Sacagawea reverse has fewer than 20 confirmed examples and can be worth over $100,000.
- 2000-S Proof Sacagawea Dollars: These coins, minted in San Francisco for collectors, have a mintage of over four million. While not as rare as some error coins, their value in pristine, uncirculated condition can range from $3.70 to $41.
- 2000-W (West Point Mint) Sacagawea Dollars: These are gold dollars with a “W” mint mark that were struck in limited quantities to commemorate the flight of the Space Shuttle Columbia. Only 12 of these survive and one has sold for six figures at auction.
The value of a 2000 Sacagawea dollar depends on several key factors:
- Condition: Coins in pristine, uncirculated condition will be more valuable than circulated coins.
- Rarity: Limited edition and error coins are generally more valuable.
- Mint Mark: The mint mark (P for Philadelphia, D for Denver, S for San Francisco) can impact value, as some mint marks are rarer or associated with special issues or errors.
- Errors: Coins with minting errors, like the “Cheerios” or “Wounded Eagle” errors, can be significantly more valuable.
While most 2000 Sacagawea dollar coins are worth only $1, it’s worth examining any 2000 Sacagawea dollar closely, especially if it appears to have a unique feature or error. Consider consulting a professional coin appraiser to determine the exact value of your coin if you believe it might be a rare variety or error. You can also try searching on online marketplaces like [eBay] or [Etsy] to see what similar coins have sold for.
How much is a 1 dollar coin made in 2000 worth?
Great question! These are popular coins but well over a billion have been minted since 2000. There are a couple of special varieties that are collectible like the 2000-P Cheerios coin. However, your regular strike Sacagawea coins are still just worth $1 and will likely only be worth a dollar for the foreseeable future.
What makes a 2000 Sacagawea coin rare?
Good point! The famous 2000-D Sacagawea Dollar and South Carolina Quarter mule is a rare coin error that features two different designs on the obverse and reverse. The obverse of the coin features the portrait of Native American woman Sacagawea, while the reverse shows the design of the South Carolina state quarter.
