1980-D Susan B Anthony Dollar
The 1980 Susan B. Anthony Dollar saw its production scaled back significantly from the massive number of coins produced for the prior year. The combined total mintage fell from more than 750 million to less than 90 million. The reduced production was due to the fact that the coins were not popular in circulation so there was relatively little need to continue producing them in such large numbers.
Once again, all thee US Mint facilities at Philadelphia, Denver, and San Francisco produced coins for circulation. The lowest mintage circulation issue for the year was the 1980-S Anthony Dollar with 20,422,000 produced.
The 1980-S Proof Susan B Anthony Dollar was also produced for inclusion in the annual United States Proof Sets. This year, the proof set holder was adjusted to accommodate the smaller sized dollar coin.
