Its around 11pm and I'm tired so I have to ask is the US mint website playing tricks on my eyes or is the Fed trying to dump their 2001 saq's?

This makes me wonder if these are 2001-P's that were struck for
circulation, but not released for circulation (until now?!).

Maybe someone at the Mint read our thread about the 857 Million coins.

Cool! I can get some of these and spend 'classic' Sac's with the date
and mintmark on the front, and the sharp-looking Eagle reverse.

On this page, you can see that the 2001 and
the 2010 Sac Dollars are both available for Direct Ship!

Going back to 2001 is nice.......but I still want/need P's & D's of the other years too !.....what about them ! ...

But ........ WHEW !...... those two roll Sets of the Native dollars sure are EXPENSIVE !!

Do they have these 2001's in "two roll sets" ? .......or just "direct ship" ?

Thanks, DNA

Eaglefoot.. it's just like exchanging bills for coins. It's face value and they pay for shipping (unless I read it wrong - always possible!). I guess then you get the fun of spending them

In anticipation of eliminating the paper dollar they mint a lot of dollar coins in 2001. Since the paper dollar was not discontinued the coins never got out, therefore the stockpile. The mint started the direct ship program to get them out to the public and into circulation since the banks don't order them.

What's ironic is that the 2001-P Sacagawea has had a premium because
it became a "Not Issued For Circulation" coin, and now it looks like a
number of BU 2001-P's may be put into circulation this year (if those
Direct Ship coins are indeed the 2001-P's that I think they are!).

Thanks guys. I thought I was seeing a typo. I might pickup a box myself. It is probably all the coins that the fed has had in vaults since 2001

I am pretty sure both 2001 Ps and Ds were issued for circulation because the mintages were 62-70 million from each mint and I frequently see both in rolls.

You're right, bio. The '01-P's been called "NIFC" by local dealers,
but I can't find anything on the Web to support that.

The one odd thing is that I have never seen a 2001-P in circulation in
Denver, even though there are millions of Sac's floating around in the
Denver Light Rail system and the mountain town casinos. It's bizarre
that in eight years, none of the 2001-P Sac's in circulation seem to
have made it here (and I see other 2001-P coins in my change with some
regularity). 2001-D Sac's are unusual, you're less likely to find one
of those than an SBA, but they are around. How is it that I could go
through enough Dollars to get all six date/MM '79-80 P-D-S SBA's and
a 1981-P SBA (!) from Light Rail change, but I never got a 2001-P
Sacagawea?

Given this situation, now more than ever, I want to add some
BU 2001-P Sac's to Denver's circulation pool...
