Description

Millennium is a fuchsia coloured bear with black button eyes and a larger black nose. He wears a golden coloured ribbon tied around his neck and he has the Earth with the sun coming up from behind it embroidered on his chest with the number “2000” embroidered underneath.

Poem

A brand new century has come to call
Health and happiness to one and all
Bring on the fireworks and all the fun
Let’s keep the party going ’til 2001!

Collectors note

Millennium was released on 1st January 1999.

His Birthday is on 1st January 1999.

He was retired on 12th November 1999.

Millennium often has errors on his swing tag and tush tag. There are a lot of rumours on the internet that this made him a rare Beanie Baby. The truth is that Millennium was a very common Beanie and these errors were so frequent that they do not affect his value.

Often Millennium appears with the misspelled name, “Millenium“, either inside the hang tag or on the tush tag. Neither of these “tag errors” affect it’s value in any way as they were so common.

Millennium either came with a “stiff” ribbon or a “soft” ribbon. Neither version is worth more than the other.
