while browsing through sell sites, this one caught me by surprise, sharing a pic and the link for a braille coin:

That MS70 coin is nice!

The Louis Braille Commemorative Dollar has Braille letters on the
reverse: "BRL" (the abbreviation for 'Braille')

Some of the Uncirculated Braille Dollars are sold in Easy-Open Capsules,
to allow blind persons to easily read the coin.

The United States Mint Braille Education Set (BR4)
has Braille text in its special packaging.

The BR4 set is also limited to 25,000 units, half the mintage
of the Lincoln Coin & Chronicles (LN6) Set
