1979 - P SUSAN B. ANTHONY

Description

America`s first small-size "silver" dollar - the shortest circulating dollar series of the 20th century! Become the owner of the scarcer issue 1979 Anthony dollar – commonly called the “Near Date”. In 1979 during the Susan B. Anthony’s very first year of issue, the U.S. Mint in Philadelphia altered its rim, making it wider and bringing it closer to the date on the coin.
Though controversial when first released because they were easily confused with the quarter, today collectors love America’s original small-size dollars. Depicting women’s rights pioneer Susan B. Anthony on the obverse, and a rendition of the Apollo 11 insignia on the reverse, this coin is now 30 years old. While many collectors already have the more common Far Date variety, they’re missing this scarcer Near Date coin. Add this one to your collection today.
