Most Susan B. Anthony dollar coins from the year 2000 are worth their face value of $1, [according to Coin ID Scanner] . However, certain factors can significantly increase their value for collectors:
Coins that have never been used in transactions and retain their original mint luster are worth more than circulated coins. Uncirculated coins might still have minor blemishes from handling during the production process, but they won’t show wear from being used in transactions. An uncirculated 2000-P (Philadelphia mint) could be worth $10-$20, while a 2000-D (Denver mint) could be worth up to $30-$40, [says Coin ID Scanner].
Some rare error varieties can fetch significant premiums. These include:
- 1999-P Susan B. Anthony struck on a Sacagawea planchet: This error occurred when a Sacagawea planchet (intended for the newer dollar coin) was mistakenly used to strike a Susan B. Anthony dollar. This results in a coin with the Susan B. Anthony design but the golden color and weight of a Sacagawea dollar.
- Off-center strikes: This happens when the coin isn’t properly centered during the striking process, causing a portion of the design to be off-center or missing.
- Double strikes: When a coin is struck more than once, leading to overlapping designs.
- Wider Rim errors: The 1979-P “Wide Rim” or “Near Date” variety is particularly sought after, featuring the date and mint mark closer to the rim compared to the more common “Far Date” version.
In 1999, proof versions of the Susan B. Anthony dollar were also minted at the San Francisco mint (identified by an “S” mint mark). These coins are specifically made for collectors and generally have a higher value than circulating coins. A 1999 Susan B. Anthony proof dollar could be worth $20-$40, and in perfect condition could even reach $100 or more, [according to Coin ID Scanner].
In summary
While most 2000 Susan B. Anthony dollars are only worth their face value, collectors look for specific characteristics, including uncirculated condition, certain mint errors, and proof versions, to determine a coin’s potential premium value.
