Definition

Noun: A Susan B. Anthony dollar is a United States one-dollar coin minted from 1979 to 1981, and again in 1999. It was the first U.S. dollar coin to feature a non-fictional woman, the women's suffrage activist Susan B. Anthony. The coin is small, round, and has a distinctive eleven-sided inner border (a hendecagon). It was often confused with the U.S. quarter due to its similar size and color, which contributed to its lack of public acceptance and circulation.
