The Direct Ship section of the Mint site lists the 2009 Native
American coins as 'not available', and doesn't list the 2009 Harrison
dollars at all. Does anyone know if these coins are going to become
'available' or are they just gone? Why would the mint pull the 2009
Native American dollars when they are required to mint so many
millions of them? I would rather pick up a box of each from the mint
at face than have to buy individual rolls at $11 over face each, plus
shipping.
In addition, the one bank in my local area that ordered the
presidential dollars in the past was told by their supplier that they
can no longer provide full boxes of them, only mixed junk rolls of $1
coins. So, they won't order any more, and a light goes out for local
collectors.

The bank that always orders a box of one thousand Presidential dollars
for me got the William Henry Harrison coins on time and I'm already
spending them.

I got five hundred 2009 Sacajaweas from the Direct Ship program but I
think that's all I can order for the year.

When I ordered my $250 box a month or so ago, the USMint's website showed a
$5K limit on the Sacs. It was still $500/design for the Prezzies.

Well, yes, it is! Thank you for pointing that out! Either the
information has changed or I misread the information originally.

I assume I don't have to order all those at once, but could sprinkle my
orders throughout the year.

Yes, they changed the limit without notice in late January IIRC. The
change is not consistent between web pages. I would assume that the
main catalog page for this item is most current.
