I still feel this is the most attractive Susan B. Anthony Dollar ever struck!

Point well made @Broadstruck ...
Definitely an aesthetic improvement.... Cheers, RickO
Very nice SBA, @Broadstruck. I particularly like the indent placement which covers her face. I also have a similar coin, but instead of indent, it is struck through detached clad layer. SBA face also covered, but showed up a little bit more. Like a veil.
@happycollecting I've known of that indent for 15 years, but it isn't mine just on my eBay watch list.
cool, ive never seen one until now
More like a "massive collar indent".
The more qualities observed in a coin, the more desirable that coin becomes!

Nice pic @Broadstruck of the S.B.A. The mint had to throw a lot of makeup on her to look sexy...wow!
I see... It surely is an interesting and well-positioned indent. No wonder you still have a good feeling about it after 15 years.
I agreed with you 1000% unless she gets a nose job

pity the poor Ms. Anthony, to be so sharply criticized by one that should be grateful for what the Suffragette's sacrifices have helped attain. we should remember that she was a Quaker and held fast to her beliefs which are very simple. to be honest, as an older woman she reminds me of my Great Grandmother.

Thanks,
Finally some appreciation for SBA, and the short lived design.
I for one love them...

She (SBA$) came out when Jimmy Carter was President.
".
40 years later and just the other day, my wife received one ('79 ) in change ( as a quarter).
Thought to myself : " I wish more clerks would do that
As a series.... they're easy to do.
And as attractive goes.... feel free to send me or show me the errors.
the coin was despised from the start, remember when it was called a Carter Quarter?? it's comparable to the Twenty Cent Piece in that regard, close enough in size to be confusing and not readily accepted by the populace. as for the design, contemporary citizens didn't really like the Morgan Dollar, but so what, a small group of influential Politicians did even before they knew what it would look like!!
I only have one, but I like it
