Powerful Susan B. Anthony Design by Frank Gasparro

Both faces of this coin were designed by US Mint Chief Engraver Frank Gasparro. Obverse: The obverse bears a right-side portrait of Susan B. Anthony. To the right is the national motto, "IN GOD WE TRUST." Thirteen stars connect two inscriptions on the rim. Those inscriptions read, "LIBERTY," and "1981."

Reverse: The reverse design is modeled off of the Apollo 11 mission insignia. An eagle lands on the moo with its wings spread and a laurel branch in its talons. Just above is the statutory motto "E PLURIBUS UNUM," next to which is earth, which is off in the distance. Rim inscriptions provide the name of the issuing country, "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA," and the coin's face value, "ONE DOLLAR."
