The 1979 Anthony Dollar is a notable coin in the United States minting history, marking the first year of issue for this series. It features a distinctive design by Susie R. R. A. Baird, showcasing a profile of Susan B. Anthony on the obverse and an image of an eagle and a laurel wreath on the reverse. The coin was produced in large quantities but was not widely accepted in circulation due to its similarity in size and color to the quarter. As a collectible, it is of interest to numismatists, particularly in higher grades, and is sought for its historical significance as the first U.S. coin to feature a woman.
