    The Goodacre presentation pieces were given to the designer of the Sac. She requested that her $5000 commission fee be paid with the new dollars and the mint obliged but they put a special finish on these coin, all 5000 coins were graded and most of them were sold at ANA's Worlds Fair Of Money 2000 for $200 each. These pieces are great to collect but at the price which they are selling it's not worth the investment, maybe if the prices drop.

    She kept the first 2000 and sold the rest at $200 ($60,000)
    Then sold the other 2000 pieces minus a few pieces she gave to family members or she herself kept. The price is not general knowledge but it figures to be more than the $200. Prob 400-500 apiece. Another $80- 100K.
    Parlayed that 5 grand fee into $150,000. Although there were grading fees involved. The dealer (Garrett) who bought the 2000 pieces immediately took them out of IGC holders and had them graded and attributed by PCGS.

    My mom would have said Goodacre was a smart cookie.

    Thanks y'all. I decided to pull the trigger on one of these. A nice SP68 example. Even if this turns out to be a loser, it's a pretty cool coin.

    My math seems to be off by a zero.
    3000x $200= 600,000
    So she made over a million dollars.

    As a collector of Sacs I too would like to know. These coins don't come to market that often but not rare either.

    V. Kurt Bellman Yes, I'm blunt! Get over your "feeeeelings".

    So there's at least four "circulating finish" 2000 Sacs out there, right?

    1) Gold ones taken to orbit.
    2) Goodacre presentation.
    3) Cheerios
    4) Standard

    ...

    I consider there's a "4a" - some true circulators were standard looking finish, plus there were PL examples. Pretty radically different look.

    Forgetting "Wounded Eagle" if you could count that.
