Description
Own a piece of American numismatic history with this 1979 Susan B. Anthony Dollar, a landmark coin that revolutionized U.S. currency design. Minted during the coin's debut year, this dollar features the iconic profile of women's suffrage pioneer Susan B. Anthony on the obverse and an eagle landing on the moon on the reverse—a powerful symbol connecting American achievement to social progress.
This standard circulation coin, composed of a copper-nickel clad composition, represents a significant moment when the U.S. Treasury honored a female figure on circulating currency for the first time. Despite initial production from 1979-1981 and a brief revival in 1999, the Susan B. Anthony Dollar saw limited public adoption, making early-year specimens increasingly desirable to collectors.
Perfect for numismatists, history enthusiasts, and those celebrating women's contributions to American society, this coin offers both cultural significance and collectible appeal. Whether you're building a comprehensive U.S. coin collection or seeking meaningful historical pieces, the 1979 Susan B. Anthony Dollar remains a cornerstone acquisition.
