I was just thinking about the Sac. Cheerios dollar. I remember seeing one of these sell on e-bay about 3 years ago, for a little over $3,000.00. I thought the Sac. dollar could not go any higher, until recently. If I would have known that, then I would have placed a bid back in 2004.
Out of 5,000 coins, how many do you think were spent in 2000 by kids who found them?

Any rumors about similar things like that happening again ? Hopefully NOT with the Presidential dollars......but I don't want something like that to come and go before I latch onto a few the next time ! |

Hindsight is 20-20!  Cheerios (and associated varieties) is my favourite cereal. I ate a lot during that campaign. Did I ever get a Sacagawea dollar from them? No.  |

So you could have bought 300 boxes of Cheerios and not even got the 2000 penny, let alone the Sacajewea dollar coin ........... that figures ......well... I was never very lucky anyway....... but had I known back then I sure would have tried !!

What really stinks is that you have to consider I was a single man with ZERO skills in the kitchen; therefore I lived off of cereal (not just for breakfast anymore). One would think the odds were in my favour!  |

Every box that showed the coins on the front had at least the 2000 cent in it. There were 5,500 sackies placed in 10 million packages. All 10 million had the cent.  I have one. Edited by Dockwalliper

HI!
I'm a newbee! I read the Sacagawea Cheerios story that a member referenced and I found it fascinating! I told it over Christmas and you could see people's eyes get this blank stare at first and then by the time I was done they were beating eachother to the door to go through their coins! ha It was a hit! Thanks!
