FA: VIP Sacagawea - James Benfield / Coin Coalition Strike
This auction is for the VIP Sacagawea struck by James Benfield, the
late head of the Coin Coalition and the father of the Sacagawea
dollar. These "first strikes" were done on a special press at a
ceremony held at the Philadelphia Mint on November 18, 1999. Less
than 600 strikes were made, and it appears that the dies were
specially prepared.
