1979-D Susan B. Anthony Dollar – Denver Mint U.S. $1 Coin
This coin is a 1979 Susan B. Anthony Dollar struck at the Denver Mint, identified by the small “D” mint mark located just left of Susan B. Anthony’s neck. It is a standard copper-nickel clad U.S. dollar coin made for regular circulation (not a proof and not a special collector strike).
The Susan B. Anthony dollar is historically notable as the first U.S. dollar coin to feature a real woman. It was unpopular in everyday use because its size was very close to a quarter, which caused frequent confusion in circulation.

This is a common Susan B. Anthony dollar in typical circulated condition and is generally worth close to face value unless it is a rare variety. The higher-value 1979 variety most often discussed is the 1979-P Wide Rim / Near Date, which does not apply to a Denver-minted coin.
A solid piece of modern U.S. coin history and a classic example of a short-lived dollar coin design.
