Harv, let me know if you decide to spend a 2000-W Uncirculated $10.00
BiMetallic Library of Congress Commemorative as $10.00. I'd be more than

happy
to be your waiter, providing excellent service! And I wouldn't call the

Secret
Service on you!


Soon as I win the Lottery ..

This is an interesting question...my lowest mintage. Hmm...

I'm betting it's either my Hard Times or one of my Civil War tokens, but
that doesn't really count. I shall consult my handy Red Book...

I guess it's my Oregon Trail, 1934D, with a mintage of 7,006. Wow,
that's more rare than I thought!

I'll do better than that...I'll give Harv a crisp, new $100 bill for it.
Ten times face! And easier to spend, too!

I feel stupid already for even asking the question, but what's GGPD?


It's a Dobacian acronym for Glenna Goodacre Presentation Dollar.

Glenna Goodacre, the sculptor who did the obverse design of the Golden dollar,
was due a $5000 payment from the Mint for winning the design competition. She
asked that the payment be made in golden dollars.

Then Mint Director, Phil "I'll do as I damned well please" Diehl decided to
send a couple of Mint officials and guards to make the presentation. It was
later determined that the finish on these dollars was different from the
run-of-the-mill golden dollar....they had been "burnished".

Glenna decided to market a couple of thousand of these special dollars. I
believe she had Harris do this for her. They were slabbed by ICG with their
"specialness" noted and sold for a couple of hundred bucks a pop....making her
$5000 payment a bit more than $5000.
