Not Sold Description
1999-P Susan B. Anthony Dollar Pattern, MS66
Copper-Zinc-Nickel Experimental Planchet
1999-P $1 Anthony Dollar, Experimental Planchet MS66 PCGS.
Alloy listed as 73% copper, 25% zinc, and 2% nickel, a
never-adopted combination. In 1999, the Mint was testing alloys for
a new dollar coin that would have a gold appearance yet possess the
same electromagnetic signature as the then-current Anthony dollar.
Several 1999- and 2000-dated Statehood quarters and Anthony dollars
were struck in various experimental alloys. Presumably, those
pieces should have been destroyed, but not all were. This example
is primarily sea-green, but has dashes of rose and gold toning.
Well-preserved but softly defined overall and a few degrees off
center toward 3 o'clock. The rims retain the rough texture of the
planchet prior to the strike.
