    Nope. My estimate of the total population remains at 25, +/-3.

    I'd be interested in picking one up myself. Let me know if you have an extra you might want to let go of. image

    These Cheerios Sacs are looking better all the time. image


    But then again, I could get $10,000.00 in Jeffersons and I'd have around$13,050.34 in metal value. image

    Flip that about 33 times and I'd profit around $100,000.00.

    Flip it 330 times and I'm up about $1,000,000.00 ! image

    how about circulated?


    should I start checking my change?

    If they ever started circulating, people could find the ones that kids pulled out of the cereal boxes and spent. However, they just sit in that vast government warehouse shown at the end of "Raiders of the Lost Ark."

    5,500 distributed.
    Most presumably spent by the kids that pulled them out of cereal boxes.

    That many? I guess I will revise my estimate to 30 +/- 3.

    You should have it graded. The original packaging is a little weak. image

    First, I believe the number of Cheerios Sacs that have turned up is closer to 40-50.

    In 2005, there was about 1-2 every month. Most were raw but some NGC's.

    Second, I don't think a large hoard will turn up, BUT if one did I would guess the price would cave to about $2500 and then gradually go up again to the current levels and higher.

    What are the PCGS and ICG and ANACS pops?

    Who else has one in the original holder? I kept one that way, and slabbed the other (NGC).
