Hello

USA TODAY also has the story as well. I am expecting
to see more links later on the Sacagawea Dollar Coin
changes. I am not sure, but I think there is three different
images for the reverse side of the Dollar Coins to be
release later.

"One new Native American coin will be created each year".

one new reverse for the Sacagawea each year. 4 Prexibux per year. 5
total dollar coin designs per year.

All will have edge lettering. IGWT will be moved to the obverse.

The reverse design looks beautiful, especially the typeface used for the
lettering.

I think I will like the look of this coin more than the Presidential
dollars, even though the date will be on the edge.

I wonder if the Sacajawea coins will be available in unmixed boxes at
the bank just like the Presidential dollars, or, if not, be available at
face value at the Mint.

We will find out when this site is updated soon:

The 2009 Sacajawea dollars will be available via the US Mint Direct Ship
program:

<http://www.usmint.gov/pressroom/index.cfm?flash=no&action=press_release&
ID=970>

There's no mention of banks being able to get unmixed Sacs in the same
manner as they get unmixed Prezzies.

No mention YET. Stand by. After all, the websites are not even
updated with the distribution dates for the DC and Territories
quarters or the moronic one cent coin 4-design release/distribution
dates. The Federal Reserve site was fully updated with Westward
Journey nickle updates, so they will do the same in the next month or
two.
