2000 Sacagawea Portrait Medal by Glenna Goodacre. Bronze. 193 mm. Number 67 of 200. Mint State.Lovely portrait of Sacagawea and her infant son, as presented on the obverse of the United States Mints regular issue Sacagawea dollar first struck in 2000, but without the legends that normally appear on the coin. Numbered, dated and signed at the base of the portrait: 67/200 G. GOODACRE 2000. Rich satiny mahogany patina, lightened very slightly on the faces of the subjects. The medallic treatment of the portrait turns a rather flat and uninspiring coinage portrait into a work of art that has vastly more appeal than what is possible to incorporate into coinage dies. Number 67 from an original edition of 200, with a wire hanging mount on the back. Eye catching and evocative! Also included in this lot is a cased 2000-P Sacagawea dollar, Goodacre Presentation, certified Specimen-69 by PCGS and encapsulated in a holder also enclosing a signature of Philip N. Diehl, Director of the Mint. One of 31 graded Specimen-69, with none finer. (Total: 2 items)
