    Check out this Presidential dollar. 190092971987. It's completely blank. How would you ever prove it came out of a pres. roll? How do you know it isn't a Sacagawea blank..You only have his word for it...$612. Can't believe it..You know what P.T. Barnam said......

    Also, how do we know if it is a true blank planchet? He could have just removed the design like Mattman did with the edge of his dollar. Only took it one step up. Also, another question is, why didn't he slab it? If I found something like this, I personally would have it slabbed. This just sounds fishy to me.

    This teaches us that the united states mint LOSES $611 when they strike each planchet!

    The GW dollars and the Sackies use the same planchets so I guess its both..or neither? Maybe its a blank Adams dollar? One thing I do know for sure....I'll save my money.:goofer:

    So basically it's just a blank dollar planchet, which may be for either a Sacagawea or a presidential dollar. Even Red Book lists those as not being worth more than $100. There's no established value on a blank presidential planchet of course, but how can they prove this isn't just a Sacagawea blank, as the OP asked?

    Assuming it went through the washing part of the process, it should be a different color than a SAC blank, just like the Prez $'s are a different color.
