Dorion Valued Member United States 63 Posts	Posted 01/21/2008 1:32 pm Has anyone here considered purchasing a Goodacre Presentation Sacagawea dollar? I've been looking for one lately, but when I mention it to a lot of dealers they seem to get a sour look on their face like its not a legitimate coin. I understand the coins was burnished; however, that doesn't make a difference to me since it was done at the mint as part of the process of preparing the coin before it was sent to Glenna Goodacre. Furthermore, its now in the 2008 RedBook, which is the reason I'm considering adding it to my collection. Has anyone else run into any resistance regarding the coin or is it my imagination?

eaglefoot Pillar of the Community United States 6326 Posts	Posted 01/21/2008 1:37 pm I saw it in the RedBook too...... but I'm only collecting the Sac's in mint and proof sets. Those would be pretty rare though I think and very interesting to have one...... good luck on gettin' it and hope you have no trouble ! Would ebay have one I wonder ? Report this Post to the Staff

I am sure people can fill in the story more, because I cannot find my link with all the details!

Conder101 Bedrock of the Community United States 17884 Posts	Posted 01/26/2008 03:20 am There are about two or three different Goodacre slab varieties which is the only reason I would want one. If it wasn't for the slab I would have no interest in them because I consider them to just be an altered coin because of the burnishing. Report this Post to the Staff
