1976 (25) Susan B. Anthony Dollars
- 1976-D
- From Uncirculated Paper Tube
The United States Mint introduced the Susan B. Anthony Dollar in 1979. They had high hopes that this new smaller dollar coin would circulate well in the United States. The Treasury Department hoped that they would be able to eliminate the paper currency for $1 and save millions of dollars per year in manufacturing costs.
This coin honors a pioneer in the woman's rights movement. On October 10, 1978, legislation provided for the issuance of the Susan B. Anthony Dollar coin. Chief Engraver of the United States Mint, Frank Gasparro, designed both the obverse and the reverse. His initials are located on the obverse near the lower right side of the portrait. This coin marks the first time that a portrait of a real woman (as opposed to an allegorical figure of Lady Liberty) appeared on a United States circulating coin.
