my sincere aplogies to everyone. My son described the coin to me the way I described it to all of you. It turns out he has a more common misprint, one with no inscription on the circumference edge, something still somewhat rare, but not at all what I thought.I won't get caught by the "assume" rule again before I post. Sorry.

well the Godless edge can be faked and has been faked rather often so a picture is a necessity when determining value/authenticity of one of these

Which dollar coin? There were four issued in 2007 and the blank edges became rarer with each issue. Authentication is a must for these though since someone with a bit of time and a buffing wheel can almost recreate one. I stress almost because to the untrained eye, they are similar but there are distinct diagnostic differences.

2000? Oh...that makes all the difference. The Sacagawea design started in 2000 and is being minted concurrently with the new Presidential dollars. The Sacagaweas are not supposed to have edge lettering.

Correct. The edge lettering process was just brought back for the new Presidential dollars.
