Is there any difference in a Cheerios Cent vs. a normal 2000 Cent?

Lots of info, easy to access via a Google search.

There is no way to determine what coin is a Cheerios Cent and which is not, unless the cent is still in the Cheerios wrapper. Other than that, it is just a cent and worth a cent. However, if the cent is a Wide AM variety, then you have a few dollars worth of a premium.
The money coin is the enhanced tail feathers 2000P SAC, of which 5.5k were minted.

There is a lot of good information for all of the small dollar coins.

Bingo. The Cents are exactly the same as normal production. The Dollars on the other hand are worth far more than their regular production brothers.

<< <i>I understand the dollars are different and therefore the value but I noticed that PCGS has Cheerios Cents listed in the coin prices section. So now I am to understand that PCGS will grade a Cheerios Cent if submitted in the blister package with a different coin # even thought the coin is the same as general circulation cents??? Seems odd that the "collector" ends up with nothing more than the label. Learn something new everyday. >>
Huh?
Whats so "odd" about that?
Aren't First Strike™ slabs "nothing more than the label"?
Aren't Kennedy Portrait slabs "nothing more than the label?"
And what about the 40th Anniversary Eisenhower Dollars? Aren't they "nothing more than the label"?
There is nothing numismatically special about ANY of the above coins yet folks buy them for "nothing more than the label" and the TPG's continue offering these "special" labels to the Authorized PCGS Dealers to sell to their customers.
It seems to me that those wanting to spend their money on either purchasing or submitting a standard circulation quality 2000 Lincoln Cent all wrapped up in "Cheerios" packaging for that "Cheerios" label falls right into line with other "label only" slabs.

There were a lot more of the cents than the dollars, every box had the cent unless it was a lucky box that included the dollar.
