The Anthony Dollar was America’s first silver-colored small-size Dollar coin and the first regular-issue coin to feature an identifiable woman. It depicts Susan B. Anthony (1820-1906), the woman’s rights pioneer whose work led to the 19th Amendment that assures women the right to vote; it is known as the “Anthony Amendment” in her honor.
The reverse is an adaptation of the official Apollo 11 mission patch; it shows an American eagle landing on the moon, with the Earth above its head.
The coin was struck for just four years (1979-81, 1999) and is one of the shortest-lived coins in U.S. history. This set includes both the first-year 1979 and final-year 1999 coins in uncirculated condition. These are the two most coveted dates, as collectors especially cherish the first and last coins in any series.
Also included as a FREE gift is the first-year 2000 Sacagawea Golden Dollar that replaced the Anthony Dollar. Featuring legendary guide Sacagawea, it was the first circulating U.S. coin to show a Native American. The obverse shows Sacagawea with her baby, Jean Baptiste, on her back. The reverse features an American eagle in flight, as well as 17 stars. The 17 stars symbolizes the 17 states in the Union at the time of Sacagawea’s journey with the Lewis and Clark Expedition.
