The year 1979 stands as a major landmark in modern American numismatic history, marking the historic inaugural year of the Susan B. Anthony dollar series. This coin was the first circulating U.S. coin to feature an actual, non-mythical woman on its obverse—the legendary social reformer and women's rights pioneer Susan B. Anthony. Chief Engraver Frank Gasparro designed both sides, executing a dignified portrait profile on the obverse and adapting the iconic Apollo 11 insignia on the reverse, depicting an American eagle landing on the moon with planet Earth visible in the background.
