Answer 1

July 25, 2009

600 million were minted -- they will never be rare. They still show up in circulation, especially from change machines. Circulated, they have no extra value except as shown below, when found in extremely fine condition.

The 1979 Susan B. Anthony dollar coin was produced at 3 US Mint facilities; Philadelphia, Denver and San Francisco. The mint marks for this coin are located on the obverse [heads] side of the coin just above the right shoulder. The letter "D" indicates the coin was minted at Denver. A letter "S" indicates the coin was minted at San Francisco. The letter "P" indicates the coin was minted at Philadelphia. The 1979 Anthony dollar was the first coin to bear the mint mark "P" for the Philadelphia mint since 1945. Note that "FG" is not a mint mark, but the monogram of Frank Gasparro who designed the coin.

"Silver Dollar"It's important to remember these coins are not really silver. SBA dollars were only struck in copper-nickel, just like dimes, quarters, and halves.

1979 was the first and highest mintage year. The value of this coin is slightly more than the face value, perhaps $1.05 face value, but it varies slightly.

$1. Susan B Anthony coins are not rare and are not made of any precious metals.

Likely face value only, just very high grade uncirculated and proof coins have more than face values, none of the coins were struck in silver regardless of mintmarks or date. There is a variety of the 1979-P issue SBA coin referred to as a Wide Rim or Near Date type that does have more than face value, most people can't tell the difference so take it to a coin dealer, you may get lucky.

$1 Unless it is in absolutely perfect condition.

They were never popular and have very little value with collectors. Plus, you could probably pick up a bunch from the bank for $1 each pretty easily.
