The Susan B. Anthony Dollar was first minted in 1979 to honor the women's rights pioneer, Susan B. Anthony. It was the first U.S. coin to feature a real woman rather than a symbolic figure like Lady Liberty. The coin’s obverse shows Susan B. Anthony’s portrait, while the reverse features an eagle landing on the moon, a design adapted from the Apollo 11 mission insignia.

1979-1981 Complete Susan B. Anthony Proof & Mint Set 6pc Collection FAQ

These sets are collections of uncirculated coins issued by the United States Mint, containing both proof and mint-quality coins from the respective years.

The number of coins in each set can vary, but they usually contain a selection of coins representing different denominations and mint marks for the given years, and occasionally dollar coins or commemoratives. 

The value of these sets can vary based on factors like rarity, condition, and demand among collectors. Some sets may hold significant value, especially if they contain coins with errors or are from limited mintages, coins that are highly sought after by collectors.

These sets can be ordered online from Bullion Shark! These sets can also be purchased from other reputable coin dealers, online auctions, coin shows, and directly from the United States Mint or authorized distributors.

These sets include a selection of coins such as the Lincoln cent, Jefferson nickel, Roosevelt dime, Washington quarter, Kennedy half dollar, and Susan B. Anthony dollar for the respective years.

Authenticity can be verified by purchasing sets from reputable sources like the United States Mint or certified dealers. Additionally, checking for specific mint marks and packaging details can help confirm authenticity. Reputable coin dealers, grading services, and professional numismatists can also help you verify your coins.

Proof set coins are specially struck using polished dies and planchets, resulting in a sharp, mirror-like finish. Mint set coins on the other hand are business strike coins struck for general circulation, but they remain uncirculated, both types of coins are rare compared to circulated coins.

Some sets may contain coins with variations or errors that make them more valuable to collectors. Additionally, certain years or mint marks may be rarer and thus more sought after. These sets include the 3 years of the very limited Susan B. Anthony dollar series, which was only minted for these 3 years, but was minted in very limited quantities again in 1999 for collectors. The 1999 coins were not included in proof or mint sets, so these 1979-1981 sets are the only Susan B. Anthony dollar sets.

It's important to store these sets in a cool, dry environment away from direct sunlight and contaminants. Protective holders or albums specifically designed for coin collecting can help preserve their condition.

Susan B. Anthony dollars were the first coins to feature a historical female figure on a coin besides the depictions of Lady Liberty. These coins became the shortest lived series of modern U.S. coinage ever. Susan B. Anthony was a critical figure in the women's suffrage movement.
