Where is the mint mark and year on Sacajawea dollar?

The mint mark and year on Sacajawea dollars can be found on the obverse (front) of the coin, just below the bust of Sacajawea. The mint mark is a small letter that indicates which mint produced the coin, while the year is a two-digit number that indicates the year in which it was minted.

For example, a Sacajawea dollar with the letter "P" mint mark was produced at the Philadelphia Mint, while a coin with the letter "D" mint mark was produced at the Denver Mint. The year 2000 is typically written as simply "00" on Sacajawea dollars.

The mint mark and year are important details to look for when collecting or examining Sacajawea dollars, as they can help to determine the rarity and value of a particular coin.
