ARTICLES RELATED TO United States dollar coin - List of designs | | | |  United States dollar coin - List of designs: Encyclopedia II - United States dollar coin - Gold dollar coins 1849–1889For a period of 40 years between 1849 and 1889, the U.S. also minted gold coins of a one-dollar denomination, the smallest denomination of gold currency ever produced in the United States. The design of the gold dollars presented unique problems, mostly related to size. The first $1 gold coin of 1849 was only 13 mm in diameter; at only three-quarters the size of the present-day dime, it was the smallest coin in U.S. history. Because the coin was so small, it was frequently lost and discarded, and many people refused to use such a coin. In 18 ...

From 1971 to 1978, the U.S. Mint issued dollar coins with the obverse depicting Dwight D. Eisenhower and the reverse the insignia of the Apollo 11 moon landing, both designed by Chief Engraver Frank Gasparro.

The Sacagawea dollar was authorized by Congress in 1997 because the supply of Anthony dollars, in inventory since their last mintage in 1981, was soon expected to be depleted. Delays in ramping up Sacagawea dollar production led to a final 1999-dated mintage of Susan B. Anthony dollars. As predicted by Coin Coalition representatives at Congressional hearings on the United States $1 Coin Act of 1997, the government's failure to eliminate the U.S. one dollar bill prevented the Sacagawea Dollar from ...

For the short duration of 1979 to 1981, the Mint produced Anthony Dollars, depicting Susan B. Anthony, the first non-fictitious woman portrayed on circulating US coinage. (Many earlier circulating coins featured images of women, but the women depicted were all non-specific representations of Liberty, not real women. Also, Spain's Queen Isabella was portrayed along with Christopher Columbus on the 1893 World's Columbian Exposition commemorative half dollar, but it was not a circulating coin.) The Anth ...

The 1921-dated coins are the most common, but there exists a substantial collector market for pristine, uncirculated specimens of the rarer dates and mint marks. Morgan dollars are second only to Lincoln Cents in collector popularity. The large size, design and inexpensive nature of most dates of the Morgan dollar makes them highly popular.
