2001-D Sacagawea Dollar

The 2001-D Sacagawea Dollar in brilliant uncirculated condition. These Golden Dollar coins had a mintage of 70,939,500. The composition of a copper core clad by manganese brass gives it the distinct golden color. The diameter is 26mm and the dollar coin obverse was designed by Glenna Goodacre.

What's a 2001-D Sacagawea dollar worth?

Honest answer first: a circulated 2001-D is worth $1, and brilliant uncirculated examples $2–$6 (USA Coin Book). The top of the census is thin — MS68 examples list around $390 with an auction record of $546 (Greysheet, PCGS) — but that's a certified-registry game.

The reason to look closely at any golden dollar: the series hides some of the most valuable moderns in existence — the 2000-P “Cheerios” prototype reverse (thousands of dollars), the 2000-P Wounded Eagle (hundreds), and the Sacagawea/quarter mule that sold for $194,062 (CoinWeek).
