1999 Susan B. Anthony Dollar

About This Coin

The 1999 Susan B. Anthony Dollar is a United States dollar from the Susan B. Anthony Dollars 1979-1999 series — the final year of the series. In 1999, coins were struck at the Philadelphia and Denver Mints with a combined mintage of 42.1 million. The obverse features Susan B. Anthony facing right, the first real woman, rather than an allegorical figure, on a circulating U.S. coin, and the reverse displays an eagle landing on the moon, adapted from the Apollo 11 mission patch. Briefly revived to meet demand for dollar coins in transit and vending while the Sacagawea Dollar was being designed. Struck in 75% copper, 25% nickel over a pure copper center, weighing 8.1 grams, 26.5 mm in diameter, with a reeded edge. Across its variants, estimated values range from $1 to $30 depending on mint mark, grade, and strike type. A notable auction result reached $16K in MS64 grade at Heritage Auctions.
