Are 1979 dollar coins rare?

The 1979 dollar coin is quite common; the U.S. Mint released millions of these coins into general circulation, making the dollar coin easily accessible and affordable. That said, some 1979 Susan B. Anthony dollar coins are rare because of their distinct die errors, for example, the wide rim 1979 dollar coin.

How much is a 1979 p dollar worth?

Why is the 1979 dollar coin called the Susan B Anthony dollar?

The 1979 dollar coin is also known as the Susan B. Anthony dollar in honor of the women’s rights advocate by the same name. Aside from wanting to honor Susan B. Anthony, the U.S. Treasury Department hoped to do away with the one-dollar paper note, which only lasted 18 months in circulation yet required so much money to mint compared to coins.
