Question
2000 Sacagawea P with no inscription on the outside circumference is it worth anything.

Thanks

Answer
Hello Bob,                                

There was no edge lettering used on modern dollar coin until the presidential series in 2007.
Although the Sacagawea Dollar coin is still being made there is no edge lettering on them.
All the necessary inscriptions are on the front and back.

They are both made from the same blank having an alloy containing 88.5% Copper, 6% Zinc,  3.5% Manganese and 2% Nickel.  
And error collectors are looking for a Sacagawea Dollar that has been lettered on the edge.

Thank You and Good Luck
