THE
DESIGNER BEHIND THE COMMEMORATIVE COIN
James
Earle Fraser (1876-1953), one of America's
most renowned sculptors and medallic artists, was
a student of another famous American sculptor - Augustus
Saint-Gaudens. Mr. Fraser
carried over his sculpting talent to the medallic
arts. He is probably best known for his famous
sculpture entitled "The End of
the Trail." Having
grown up in the Dakota Territory, Mr. Fraser
witnessed first-hand this country's westward
expansion and its impact on Native American
communities.

This is the highly sought 2001 American Buffalo
Commemorative "Silver Dollar Business Strike
Coin authorized by an Act of the U.S. Congress,
made for the "Smithsonian National Museum of
the American Indian" and released by the
U.S. Mint. It originally came with a Velvet
Display Case, Box and Certificate of
Authenticity.
This coin was authorized to commemorate the
National Museum of the American Indian of the
Smithsonian Institution, the museum's opening,
and to supplement the museum's ongoing endowment
and educational funds.
The fate of the American Buffalo - or bison - was
linked to the fate of the Native American, and
vice versa. Native Americans hunted the bison and
used the carcass for everything from shelter and
food to needles and cooking implements --they
were known for wasting nothing.
The study of Native Americans, including their
language, literature, history, art and
anthropology, is the purpose of the proposed
National Museum of the American Indian. The
museum will feature more than 10,000 years of
American history. The 260,000 square foot museum
is scheduled to open on the National Mall near
the U.S. Capitol in 2004 and is expected to
attract about 6 million visitors a year. Ground
was broken for the museum on September 28, 1999.

Please DO
NOT use eBay's Checkout System! But remember - eBay requires confirmation of
the transaction within

E-Mail Address, Name, Shipping Address, and the Item
Number. I will send you e-mail confirming the auction
with total amount due, payment information and address to
send the payment. Your payment needs to arrive within 10
days of close of auction. I DO NOT accept PAYPAL
payments for auctions!
I
PREFER a United States Postal Service Money Order!
I will accept SHIPPING, HANDLING & INSURANCE payment with other U.S. Money
Orders, Cashiers Checks, Personal or Business Checks, but
ONLY if the name matches the
Registered User ID information. Any check will delay
shipping a minimum of 10 business days from the deposit

"NSF"

Non-Paying Bidders cause the seller to request listing
fees & final value fees credits from eBay, and will
be reported to eBay's Trust & Safety Department. They
may also receive appropriate "NPB" Negative
Feed Back. Feed Back "extortionists",
inappropriate e-mail or phone communication, or Feed Back
deemed "retaliatory" would also be reported,

Bidder or Seller Feed Back
If
you are a BIDDER and have any Negative Feed Back as a "NPB"
(Non-Paying Bidder) for failing to send payment,
confirm auctions, or make contact, causing seller
claims for listing & final value fee credit
from eBay...
If
you are a SELLER and have any Negative Feed Back for non-shipment,
excessive delay, no refund, no exchange, or over
charge on S/H/I...
If
you are a BIDDER or SELLER and your feed back history indicates you
leave negative feed back comments that are obviously
retaliatory, inflammatory, contain mean, nasty
personal attacks...
If
you don't intend to leave factual, truthful and
honest comments to me then do not
participate in my auction or listing!
The
item description, pictures, my auction terms,
etc. - your submission of any questions prior to
your placing any bid - communication after the
listing closes - confirming information with your
name, address, item number and a timely payment
will be essential to a successful transaction
with POSITIVE
FEED BACK for us both.
I
believe ALL problems that may arise
in a transaction can be resolved through direct,
post-auction communication or mediation by a
third party such as SquareTrade.
|
I will not
deliberately, or knowingly make an item picture or
description mistake. I want you to be completely
satisfied with your treasure, but there will be NO REFUNDS for "bidder's remorse". Please ask your
questions BEFORE entering your bid. If you need
clarification, want to know more about the item,
shipping, etc. e-mail PRIOR to entering into the bidding
so I can respond, modify the description, send a picture,
or link you to other pictures at
Litespeed TBI-SVR's Home.
