Engraver: Frank Gasparro
(both sides). This coin is known as "Susan B. Anthony Dollar"
among coin collectors. Note: This coin
was minted at three locations: Denver, Philadelphia and San
Francisco. Denver coins carry a letter "D", Philadelphia coins
have "D" and San Francisco coins carry a letter "S", above
Susan B. Anthony's left shoulder. All coins of Denver and
Philadelphia were stuck for regular circulation. The San Francisco
Mint struck this coin for circulation as well as all proofs for this
type. Susan Brownell Anthony (b. February 15, 1820 at
Adams, Massachusetts – d. March 13, 1906 at Rochester, New York) was
an American social reformer and women's rights activist who played a
pivotal role in the women's suffrage movement. Born into a Quaker
family committed to social equality, she collected anti-slavery
petitions at the age of 17. In 1856, she became the New York state
agent for the American Anti-Slavery Society. In 1851, she met
Elizabeth Cady Stanton, who became her lifelong friend and co-worker
in social reform activities, primarily in the field of women's
rights. In 1852, they founded the New York Women's State Temperance
Society after Anthony was prevented from speaking at a temperance
conference because she was female. In 1872, Anthony was arrested for
voting in her hometown of Rochester, New York, and convicted in a
widely publicized trial. Although she refused to pay the fine, the
authorities declined to take further action. In 1878, Anthony and
Stanton arranged for Congress to be presented with an amendment
giving women the right to vote. Introduced by Sen. Aaron A. Sargent
(R-CA), it later became known colloquially as the Susan B. Anthony
Amendment. It was ratified as the Nineteenth Amendment to the U.S.
Constitution in 1920. Anthony traveled extensively in support of
women's suffrage, giving as many as 75 to 100 speeches per year and
working on many state campaigns. She worked internationally for
women's rights, playing a key role in creating the International
Council of Women, which is still active. She also helped to bring
about the World's Congress of Representative Women at the World's
Columbian Exposition in Chicago in 1893. When she first began
campaigning for women's rights, Anthony was harshly ridiculed and
accused of trying to destroy the institution of marriage. Public
perception of her changed radically during her lifetime, however.
Her 80th birthday was celebrated in the White House at the
invitation of President William McKinley. She became the first
actual woman to be depicted on U.S. coinage when her portrait
appeared on the 1979 dollar coin. This dollar coin was badly
accepted and withdrawn. |
