2000-P Sacagawea "Cheerios" Dollar, FS-902, Boldly Detailed Tail Feathers, and 2000 Lincoln "Cheerios" Cent. (PCGS).；Both coins are individually graded, yet encapsulated together in a single large-size PCGS holder. As follows: "Cheerios" dollar, MS-67; and "Cheerios" cent, MS-68 RD. Each piece is as made, virtually pristine with lovely satin surfaces. Also included in this lot is the original holder/Certificate of Authenticity, as jointly issued by Cheerios and the United States Mint. The box on the back of the Certificate, below the signature of Mint Director Philip N. Diehl, is blank without a NAME, EVENT or DATE filled in. Apart from having been opened to remove the coins, the holder/Certificate combination is in Extremely Fine condition with only minor signs of handling. This popular variety of the first year Sacagawea dollar is affectionately known as the "Cheerios" dollar, and it is most readily identifiable by the pronounced enhancement evident to the detail of the eagles tail feathers. These pieces were distributed by the Mint in boxes of Cheerios cereal as part of a promotional program with General Mills to advertise the new "golden" dollar coin. Each distribution also included an accompanying 2000 Lincoln cent, as here. Only 5,500 examples of this variety were distributed, and many of these "Cheerios" dollars were obtained by non-numismatists who eventually spent the coins or otherwise mishandled them. This fact explains the rarity of not only high grade examples, but also those that are still accompanied by the original holder/Certificate combination. The Boldly Detailed Tail Feathers variety was short lived, the Mint smoothing out the eagles tail feathers before commencing large scale Sacagawea dollar production later in 2000. (Total: 2 coins, 1 holder/certificate)；
