General Description This coin depicts women's suffrage campaigner Susan B. Anthony. The reverse honours
Apollo 11 mission that was also present on the previously issued Eisenhower Dollar. It was one of the most unpopular coins in American history.
Although it is round, the Susan B. Anthony dollar is intended to convey an 11-sided appearance, from the 11-sided rim bordering the edge of both sides.
Obv. Description The image of women's suffrage campaigner Susan B. Anthony graces the obverse of this coin. Liberty is over her head and 1981 is under her bust. The words In God We Trust is at her right shoulder and the S mint mark is at her right shoulder. 13 stars complete the circle created by the lettering.
Rev. Description The reverse depicts an eagle flying above the moon (with the Earth in the background), a design adapted from the Apollo 11 mission insignia that was also present on the previously issued Eisenhower Dollar. The words United States of American One Dollar circle this side of the coin. The Words E Pluribus Unum is above the Earth and right wing of the eagle. 13 stars also circle this side of the coin.
