The value of a 2000-P Sacagawea dollar coin can range significantly depending on its condition and whether it’s a specific, sought-after variety.
- In circulated condition, these coins are generally worth their face value, or slightly more, in the range of $1 to $5.
- In uncirculated condition (MS60-MS65), they can fetch around $10-$30.
- In pristine, uncirculated condition, they can sell for as much as $375.
Some 2000-P Sacagawea dollars are particularly valuable due to specific characteristics:
- Cheerios Dollar: These coins, distributed in Cheerios boxes in 2000, have more detailed tail feathers on the eagle. They are highly collectible and can be worth $5,000 to $25,000 or more, especially if graded MS65 or higher.
- Goodacre Presentation Coins: These were part of a special group presented to Glenna Goodacre, the coin’s designer. They are typically graded and can command prices of hundreds or even thousands of dollars, such as the 2000-P Goodacre Presentation SP68 PCGS which is offered at $1045.
- Error Coins: Coins with minting errors, such as a Wounded Eagle error (a die gouge creating a line across the eagle’s breast) or a Sacagawea Dollar struck on a planchet intended for another coin, can also be very valuable. A Wounded Eagle error in MS60-MS65 condition can be worth $250-$5,000+. A rotation error can result in a value of $225 to $350. Some rare examples, like the Sacagawea Dollar and Statehood Quarter Mule (featuring a Sacagawea dollar obverse and a George Washington quarter reverse), have sold at auction for over $100,000. An example of a 2000-P Sacagawea dollar struck on a Susan B. Anthony dollar planchet sold for $16,800 in 2022.
To determine the exact value of your 2000-P Sacagawea dollar, it’s recommended to have it professionally graded by a reputable coin grading service, especially if you suspect it might be a rare variety or an error coin.
How do I know if I have a 2000-P cheerios Sacagawea dollar coin?
One significant variety is the 2000-P Cheerios dollars, included in specially marked cereal boxes as a promotion. These early strikes show subtle die differences in the tail feathers of the eagle, distinguishing them from regular issues.
How rare is a 2000-P Sacagawea dollar wounded eagle?
From my experience, The 2000-P “Wounded Eagle” Sacagawea Dollar is so-named because of a raised die flaw that cuts across the eagle’s belly (see the attribution image above). As of January 2012, this variety remains elusive, with PCGS showing a population of 115 examples in all grades.
