I've already seen this rendition before and REALLY REALLY like it ! .........  The only design I don't care for is the "Corn Planter" one. I know how important/vital "corn" was......but it's just a boring design to me. Who knows ? When it's all said and done...... Maybe this series will end up being a sleeper series of some kind/level ? Maybe not so much with having any real "keys"......but like with what was mentioned with "condition" ! ....  A nice BU and Proof Set could really be something to have someday ! A special "Silver" Native Dollar would be nice to have in this collection too......wonder if that'll ever happen ? 20th Anniversary of the coin or something ? Edited by eaglefoot

The Native American dollars really have excellent designs, all in all. Quite a breath of fresh air, compared to the bland, decades-old designs on far too many of our coins. Too bad almost no one who isn't a coin collector will ever see one. |

I also like this design. It's got me thinking about picking up a Dansco album and starting a collection. I don't really need another series to collect, but I might as well get started now while there are only about ten years worth of coins to collect.

This is by far the best design so far in my opinion. I have them all in proof as well. Can't wait to see it in hand.

I'll get a proof set and an extra proof for my 7070. I like the design. I have a P&D set but I may need to start the proofs. That 2001 is kind of tough though but no worse than $20 I think.

Nice design, now the Mint is getting "it," with more dynamic and less traditional designs. The first three years of the Native American reverses were good, this '12 design is letting the series finally hit its stride. Too bad this will not be made in proof or uncirculated silver like the "Lucky Loonies" next door.

That horse reminds me of Petey from the little rascals.  |

I love the 2012 Native reverse  Too bad about the new Direct Ship $12.50 surcharge...  I'll get "D" business strike coins at the Denver Mint Gift Shop (at face value). Since 2009, Denver's been minting the bulk of the current-year Native Dollars in January. From early Jan. to mid Feb., you can get the BU business strike Native Dollars from the Gift Shop. After the year's first Pres. Dollar comes out (in mid Feb.), you'll get Pres. Dollars until December, unless you happen to catch them in a week where they minted more Natives to meet the "20%" requirement. Edited by DNA

self you better get a Unc. roll or two of these from the bank Good luck with that since the banks can't order them from the Fed, and probably won't order them from the direct ship because of the new $12.50 per box charge. The only way you will find rolls of these at the bank will be rolls a collector has bought, searched, and been willing to eat the fee when dumping. A better option would be to eat the fee yourself and get a box through the direct ship. Edited by Conder101

I like it. I look forward to seeing it in the proof sets next year, since that is the only way I ever see them. |

It's certainly arguable whether or not it's "worth it", but I also get the P&D roll set each year from the U.S. Mint.
I like these coins so much, that I'll collect these roll sets (since & including 2007) even though I'll never be able to open them...yes, keeping and valuing the "Mint Paper" intact ! LoL Ha Ha.....probably until they stop making them !
Proofs....Uncirculated.....Satins.....Biz. strikes....circulated...rolls....whatever.... I just love this coin !
