Fascinating Error 1999-P Anthony Dollar Struck on a Sacagawea Dollar Planchet

1999-P SBA$ --Struck on a Sacagawea Dollar Planchet--MS 64 PCGS. Found by the consignor in a roll of Susan B. Anthony dollars he received from the bank, this intriguing error occurred when a Sacagawea dollar planchet was fed into a press that was striking 1999-P Susan B. Anthony dollars. Other than being struck on the wrong planchet, this coin was properly produced, and both sides display well centered, fully defined features. The surfaces are lustrous and fully frosted with none of the carbon spots that often plague Sacagawea dollars. There are, however, scattered abrasions on both sides, but a partial reeding mark on Anthony's neck is the only singularly mentionable distraction.
Modern errors have received a significant amount of publicity over the past several months, as evidenced by the numerous articles dedicated to these coins in such numismatic publications as Coin World and Numismatic News. We recently offered a desirable Sacagawea dollar/Washington quarter "mule" error as lot 6452 in our Philadelphia 2000 Signature Sale, and we anticipate that the present coin will see bidding that is equally as spirited as that which accompanied the sale of the former piece.
