This is the most complete Sacagawea set available and includes ALL of the mint Sacagawea US Mint releases since the Sacagawea series began in the year 2000 (Note there are a few odd ball varieties (ie. Not regular mint releases) that are NOT in this set such as the very pricey 2000 Wounded Eagle Variety, 2000 Goodacre Variety, and 2000 Cheerios Dollar). Prior to COVID when Dansco stopped making albums for several years I sold over a hundred of these sets in Dansco Albums. Now that Dansco is again producing their signature albums, I am able to offer this complete (to date) 93 coin PDS/Special Release Sacagawea set. This 93 coin set includes both a P mint and a D mint Sacagawea dollar from 2000 through 2024 (50 coins). All coins are directly from freshly cracked US mint rolls, handled with gloves and never circulated. This set also contains the 25 traditional "S" proofs that have been released thus far as part of the Sacagawea series since the year 2000 through 2024. In addition, this set contains the following 18 special issue Sacagawea coins as follows: 1) 12 “Satin” finish coins from 2005 to 2010 (both P&D for each of those years). These coins were released by the US mint ONLY in the US mint sets for the years 2005 to 2010. Given the limited mintage of the US mint sets in the years 2005 through 2010 these are relatively low mintage coins. I have put the Satin coins in an additional page added to the Dansco album.2) 4 “Enhanced” Uncirculated Sacagawea Dollars released in the years 2014 - 2016 & 2019 only via the US “Coin & Currency” sets for each of those years. The coin and currency sets were of limited mintages each of those years (50,000 sets in 2014, 75,000 in 2015, 2016 and 2019) and are the lowest mintage mint issued Sacagawea coins. The 2014 coin was minted in Denver, the 2015 at West Point, the 2016 at San Francisco and the 2019 in Philadelphia.3) The 2017 “S” Enhanced Uncirculated Sacagawea taken from the special mint set in 2017 commemorating the 225th Anniversary of the US mint that was released in limited quantities (225,000 sets that quickly sold out).4) The 2018 “S” Reverse Proof Sacagawea taken from the special mint set in 2018 commemorating the 50th Anniversary of proof coinage from the San Francisco mint that was also released in limited quantities (200,000 sets that quickly sold out). This coin is the only reverse proof thus far in the Sacagawea series. The first nine years of the Sacagawea series, from 2000 through 2008, featured designs with the reverse of a soaring eagle from an early 20th century coin design. Starting in 2009 the Sacagawea series became the “Native American” series with the reverse of the coins each year changing with a different Native American theme. Below I have included the themes for the reverse designs since 2009. The Dansco album which this set comes in is the latest Dansco version and includes a page at the back of the album for the coins from 2024 through 2027 (that page currently contains the 2024 PDS coins as well as the 5 Enhanced Special Release coins + the 1 Reverse Proof coin). As well, I have added an “extra page” to the album to hold the 12 satin coins. The album also includes information on the Sacagawea series and I have included a picture of that information in the listing pictures. This is a very nice set featuring an attractive and popular coin with most of the coin issues from the Sacagawea series never put into circulation leaving mintages for most of these coins as modest. I am a collector of over 50 years and have been selling coins on Ebay for over a decade with over 10,000 instance of positive feedback. A retired 34 year Navy veteran with service stretching back to the end of the Cold War, I am an ethical seller who desires to provide nice coin sets to other collectors at reasonable pricing. Native American Themes for the 2009 to date Sacagawea coinage: 2009 - Three Sisters Agriculture Coin commemorates the spread of Three Sisters Agriculture around 1000 A D and features a Native American woman planting seeds in a field populated with corn, beans and squash. 2010 - Great Law of Peace (HAUDENOSAUNEE) Coin commemorates the Great Tree of Peace and the Iroquois Confederacy of the early 1400s, and features an image of the Hiawatha Belt with five arrows bound together and the additional inscription HAUDENOSAUNEE and GREAT LAW OF PEACE. 2011 - Wampanoag Treaty 1621 Coin commemorates the Great Wampanoag Nation and the creation of an alliance with settlers at Plymouth Bay in 1621 and features the hands of the Supreme Sachem Ousamequin Massasoit and Governor John Carver, symbolically offering a ceremonial peace pipe after the initiation of the first formal written peace alliance between the Wampanoag tribe and the European settlers. The additional inscription is WAMPANOAG TREATY 1621. 2012 - Trade Route Coin commemorates the Trade Routes that helped spread the horse in 17th Century America, and features a Native American horse in profile with horses running in the background. 2013 - Treaty With the Delawares 1778 Coin commemorates the Treaty with the Delawares and features a turkey, howling wolf and turtle (all symbols of the clans of the Delaware Tribe), and a ring of thirteen stars to represent the Colonies. The additional inscriptions are TREATY WITH THE DELAWARES and 1778. 2014 - Native Hospitality Coin commemorates how Native American hospitality ensures the success of the Lewis and Clark Expedition. Its reverse design depicts a Native American man offering a pipe while his wife offers provisions of fish, corn, roots and gourds. In the background is a stylized image of the face of William Clark's compass highlighting "NW," the area in which the expedition occurred. The design includes the inscription UNITED STATES OF AMERICA and $1. 2015 - MOHAWK Iron Workers Coin commemorates the contribution of the Kahnawake Mohawk and Mohawk Akwesasne communities to "high iron" construction work and the building of New York City skyscrapers and bridges. 2016 - Code Talkers The reverse of this coin features two helmets and inscriptions for WWI and WWII with two feathers forming a "V" to symbolize victory, unity and the importance of the code talkers program. 2017 - Sequoyah The reverse of this coin commemorates the contributions of Sequoyah, inventor of the Cherokee Syllabary. 2018 - Jim Thorpe This year's coin recognizes the accomplishments of Olympian and multi- talented athlete Jim Thorpe. The reverse of this coin depicts Thorpe, with the foreground elements highlighting his football and Olympic achievements. Inscriptions are "JIM THORPE," "WA-THO-HUK" (his native name), "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA," and "$1." 2019 - US Space Program The 2019 Native American $1 Coin reverse (tails side) design highlights the contributions of Native Americans to the U.S. Space Program. American Indians have been on the modern frontier of space flight since its infancy. American Indian contributions to the U.S. Space Program culminated in the three spacewalks of John Herrington (Chickasaw) on the International Space Station in 2002. These and other pioneering achievements date back to the work of Mary Golda Ross (Cherokee), one of the first female American Indian engineers. She helped develop the Agena spacecraft for the Gemini and Apollo Programs. The reverse design features Mary Golda Ross writing calculations. Behind her, an Atlas-Agena rocket launches into space, with an equation inscribed in its cloud. An astronaut, symbolic of Native American astronauts, including Herrington spacewalks above. In the field behind, a group of stars indicates outer space. 2020 - Alaska Anti-Discrimination Law The theme of the 2020 Native American $1 Coin design is Elizabeth Peratrovich and Alaska’s Anti-Discrimination Law. The first anti-discrimination law in the United States, prohibiting discrimination in access to public accommodations, was passed in the Alaskan territorial government in 1945. Elizabeth Peratrovich (Tlingit nation), through her advocacy for Alask2022 - Ely Parker Native American Dollar an Natives with her husband Roy and an impassioned speech in the Alaskan Senate in support of the law, is widely credited with getting it passed. 2020 marks the 75th anniversary of Elizabeth Peratrovich’s famous testimony in support of the nation’s first anti-discrimination law. 2021 - Native Americans in the US Military The theme of the 2021 Native American $1 Coin is Native Americans in the U.S. Military. Native Americans have served in the Armed Forces of the United States in each of our nation’s conflicts, beginning with the Revolutionary War. They have served at a higher rate in proportion to their population than any other ethnic group. During World War I, Native Americans volunteered to fight in astonishing numbers although most were ineligible for the draft. Of the 10,000 Native Americans who served in the Army and the 2,000 who served in the Navy, three out of four were volunteers. Native Americans have received recognition for their service, including five Medals of Honor during World War II. Their exemplary record of military service continues to this day. 2022 - Ely Parker Native American Dollar The 2022 Native American $1 Coin commemorates Ely S. Parker, a U.S. Army officer, engineer, and tribal diplomat, who served as military secretary to Ulysses S. Grant during the U.S. Civil War. When Robert E. Lee surrendered at Appomattox, Virginia, on the morning of April 9, 1865, Parker rendered the formal surrender documents in his own hand. Designed by United States Mint Artistic Infusion Program Designer Paul C. Balan and sculpted by United States Mint Chief Engraver Joseph Menna, the reverse (tails) design features Parker, depicted in Army uniform, with a quill pen and book, along with a likeness of his graceful signature, as symbols of his experience as an expert communicator. The inscriptions “TONAWANDA SENECA” and “HA-SA-NO-AN-DA” recognize his tribe and the name given to him at birth. Additional inscriptions include “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA” and “$1.” 2023 - Maria Tallchief Native American Dollar The 2023 reverse design features Maria Tallchief in balletic pose. Tallchief was America’s first major prima ballerina, and she and her husband, George Balanchine, transformed American classical ballet. In addition to Tallchief, four other American Indian ballerinas from Oklahoma achieved international recognition in the 20th century, including her younger sister Marjorie Tallchief, Yvonne Chouteau, Rosella Hightower, and Moscelyne Larkin. Celebrated as the “Five Moons,” their legacy of achievement and inclusion continues to influence ballet today. A nod to the Five Moons is presented in the lunar motif, while the four ballerinas in the background are symbolic of both Tallchief’s American Indian ballerina contemporaries and the generations of dancers they inspired. Inscriptions are “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,” “MARIA TALLCHIEF,” “$1,” and “AMERICAN INDIANS IN BALLET.”2024 - Indian Citizenship Act of 1924 Native American Dollar The 2024 Native American $1 Coin was designed and sculpted by United States Mint Medallic Artist Phebe Hemphill. The coin's reverse (tails) features an American flag and an eagle staff, which is a symbol of honor, respect, and patriotism for American Indians. The coin's theme is the Indian Citizenship Act of 1924, which granted US citizenship to all non-citizen Indians.Only 10 of the coins in this coin set were released into general circulation and therefore the mintages on most of the coins are quite low. The Sacagawea coins are a popular series with numerous low mintage coins likely meaning these coins will appreciate over time. Below is an excerpt from sacagaweadollarguide.com which explains the low mintages of the series and includes mintage figures for the regular business (circulation) strike coins, all of which are part of this set: The circulation strike mintage levels for the Sacagawea Dollar series are interesting to examine. For the first year of the series, more than one billion coins were produced across the Philadelphia and Denver Mint facilities. This figure would decline drastically to about 130 million by the second year and to less than 8 million by the third year.The new dollar coins did not circulate widely as intended, so production was quickly scaled back and limited only to the demand generated from numismatic channels. From 2002 to 2008, the coins not distributed for circulation but only available within numismatic bags and rolls priced at a premium above face value. Over the years, collectors tended to order fewer bags and rolls, resulting in a trend of declining mintages.The lowest mintage coins under the original design are the 2008-P and 2008-D coins, with only 1,820,000 coins were produced at each Mint.Starting in 2009, the series was given a boost when new legislation provided for annually rotating reverse designs. A stipulation was also provided that the Sacagawea Dollars, renamed Native American Dollars, must account for at least 20% of all dollar coin production during the year. Thus from 2009 to 2011, the popularity of the new Presidential Dollar series drove production levels for all $1 coins.Starting in 2012, the Presidential Dollars were only struck for inclusion within numismatic products, and the Sacagawea Dollars followed suit. The mintage low of the series was revisited with the 2013-P and 2013-D issues at 1,820,000 coins each.Sacagawea Dollar Mintages2000-P767,140,0002000-D518,916,0002001-P62,468,0002001-D70,939,5002002-P3,865,6102002-D3,732,0002003-P3,080,0002003-D3,080,0002004-P2,660,0002004-D2,660,0002005-P2,520,0002005-D2,520,0002006-P4,900,0002006-D2,800,0002007-P3,640,0002007-D3,920,0002008-P1,820,0002008-D1,820,0002009-P39,200,0002009-D35,700,0002010-P32,060,0002010-D48,720,0002011-P29,400,0002011-D48,160,0002012-P2,800,0002012-D3,080,0002013-P1,820,0002013-D1,820,0002014-P3,080,0002014-D5,600,0002015-P2,800,0002015-D2,100,0002016-P2,800,0002016-D2,100,000$12.50 shipping charge for USPS Priority Mail. 30 day return privilege.
