Hello,
I was just cleaning up some of the coins around my desk. (very messy) I found these 2 coins graded by ICG. Can someone give me a brief History on them? Why are they in black? Thank you for any help,
Dan

    Doesn't the label tell it all?

    The first one was the coin in the Millenium Coin and Currency set that the US Mint produced. It included a Silver Eagle, a $1 Bill, and this Sacagawea (if I remember correctly). It was a burnished coin, and apparently had a limited mintage of 75,000.

    The second coin is a 2000-P Sacagawea ICG MS68. I don't think there's anything particularly special about that one.

    the black is an intercept shield to protect against toning

    i have one of those millennium sacs in the same slab in for crossover. notice there is no grade on the slab. mine looks 67 with
    a shot at 68. your other one is already a 68. there seems to be less value to coins in ICG holders. JMO

    If my memory serves me correctly, I believe you had to pay extra for the Intercept Shield protection.

    i will post when i get the results. it will be a few weeks as i just sent them and heading into the holidays and don`t expect them to get grades posted till after the new year. i also sent a 2001 sac experimental rinse in a SEGS 65 holder and hoping it will not downgrade.
