The Sacagawea “Cheerios” Dollar From 2000
A year prior to the turn of the century, Sacagawea dollars were added to boxes of General Mills cereal as a contest. However, the design had not been ready in time for the date they announced. This was the reason the U.S. Mint helped them by providing a version of an existing design that was slightly altered. Only four such coins have been discovered. If you ever come across another one, know that it is worth $2,677!

Rumor has it that the circulation currently holds 5,500 such coins. At the moment, it goes for around $140, which is not bad!
