Question
Hi my name is Tiffany my grandmother has several Susan Anthony $1 coins. Three of the coins have the date 2000 printed on them and one has no date at all, is this a misprint??? And if so is it worth any money?

Answer
Tiffany,

I suspect what you have are actually Sacagawea dollar coins -- minted from 2000 to present.  Are they golden in color and look like the one pictured here? :

If so, feel free to spend them -- they are issued for circulation.

For the ones with no date, check the outer edge.

I hope this helps,

Dan

Expertise

My strong familiarity with all U.S. Mint coins, extensive reference library, and close relationships with many other dealers allows me to identify just about any coin made in the USA. I receive regular updates to all the current price guides -- both wholesale & retail -- to provide accurate values. So, with a good description or pictures, I should be able to identify and value any U.S. coin you have.

Experience

I've been a coin dealer since the 1980's and a coin collector since the 1960's. I specialize in U.S. Silver Coins and have an active online website -- The Working Man's Rare Coins -- http://www.workingmancoins.com -- offering information and inventory in U.S. coins.
