    Yes they do! Here's a photo of what they look like. It's not mine.

    If you send these to ANACS, leave them in the original package. How else would they know it was a real Cheerios cent and not a regular 2000 cent. I forgot who it was but someone here on the boards offered some major money for a ANACS slabbed Cheerios Sac. I heard that they only made 5,500 Cheerios Sacs.

    That one's mine (along with that dollar).

    Just for fun I recently sent one to PCI.

    It came back, "Cheerios Promo" on the insert, MS68 RED.

    Nope just a cheerios cent. They had it and didn't know what it was and gave it to me.

    Correct. It's the cardboard & plastic around it that makes special.

    Here's a goal for those looking for something different:

    Find an ANACS certified AU-58 or lower Cheerios cent.

    To me, the "Cheerios" coins, once removed from their original holder, are nothing more than ordinary coins.

    I've got 6 of 'em still in original package. Next time I send to ANACS, I'll pick the best one to include and keep the other 5 intact.
    I wonder if there's grade population data on these.

    I know why -- I was going to PM you and ask if you'd part with that Cheerios Sackie -- but I doubt you will image.

    To be honest, I've never seen a slabbed Cheerios coin sell on eBay. And I've been looking.

    I sold a regular old Cherrios cent a few years ago -- got about three dollars for it, IIRC.

    The Cheerios cents all have the regular business strike close AM reverse (type 1) not the proof hub wide AM reverse (type 2)

    Agreed, I left mine alone!
