@Yup, haha, I understand what you mean. I like the ANACS slabs a little so I buy them. I like PCGS slabs the best because you can repair scratches. NGC you can't. But whatever TPG you pick, is your choice. Just don't buy the holder, make sure the coins looks nice.

Every Type collection should have one Sac Dollar.
I am still looking for a decent "Wounded Eagle" variety for my collection.

Yea, like in this case, they even had an exclusive native american label,,, to which as I looked around I said huh.
I went by a combination of price, grade and the coin and how it looked.
This is only my second graded coin. I like them and I think for some coins its worth to have them graded.

@schris
yes what you said is what caught my eye to these coins. Normally, I pass on these type coins.
Excellent that you have the P and D... I am tempted to snatch up those as well now.
What is it going to take for the US Mint to showcase all the birds, animals, etc of this country?
I mean all the animals on this coin, I just couldnt resist it.

Quote: That's the one with the wolf, turtle, and turkey, correct? I really like that one too. So far all I keep seeing is the flying eagle one. It is nice in it's own right, but that other version .... if I don't find one in circulation, I'm going to have to buy one too. You will probably have to buy it because the 2011's were the last ones made for general circulation. The 2012's and 2013's were only made for sale directly to collectors in rolls and bags. Very few of them will ever get into circulation. Quote: I heard that the Sacagawea coins are the first US coin where both eyes are visible (instead of a one-eyed profile). Have you found that to be true? Not quite. The busts on Mount Rushmore on the reverse of the State Quarter show both eyes, but the Sac may have come out before that one. I don't know if you can see both of Helen Kellers eyes on than State Quarter and there were several early commemorative halves where both of the persons eyes can be seen.

Quote: ...there were several early commemorative halves where both of the persons eyes can be seen. The Booker T. Washington immediately comes to mind. Also, several modern issues (Washington, RFK, Black Revolutionary War Patriots, Dolley Madison, etc.) predate the Sac.

Quote: the redesigned Jefferson nickel also has both eyes. True, but it came out after the Sac.

Got the Sac and love the design. Hope they continue to make some decent looking ones like this.

Yes I agree. Hope they have rich detail and hopefully with animals. Wish they had done these in gold and silver.
