Well, after all the rude things I've said over the months about the U.S. Mint, it's only fair that I say that they have done a great job on ASEs and commemoratives. My USMC, Marshall, and Ericson commemoratives seem to me to be extremely well made. I complain about the web service, but if I had to make a choice between great coins or great service, I'd certainly choose the great coins I'm getting. It would be far worse to be getting crappy coins three days after I ordered them.

Not on the web site nor in the catalog. The mint did release a Ericson Comm. in 2000, am I missing something??
No, I was referring to the 2000 coin. And I was impressed with the design of the image on that particular coin.
