bottimurillo90 Valued Member United States 202 Posts	Posted 11/28/2016 6:21 pm Was wondering if anyone could tell me if this would be considered an Improper Alloy mix? I've seen some examples of some coins, and because I'm new at this it's very confusing but at the same time fun. Also can you tell me how to identify Susan B. Anthony dollar struck on a quarter planchet? Thank goodness for these website & experts who can help me learn. I would appreciate any information you can give me. Thank you.

Earle42 Bedrock of the Community United States 10038 Posts	Posted 11/28/2016 6:40 pm Sorry, but the pics don't show anything abnormal to indicate an improper alloy mix. What are you seeing? And as Dustin6 said, weight and diameter would be how to tell if its on an improper planchet. Weight of a typical SBA is 1.04 oz or 8.1g. Diameter is 1.04 inches or 26.5mm.

There are wide & narrow rim varieties for the 1979-P SBA dollars. Here is a link to help you out with that: http://www.smalldollars.com/dollar/page29.html Happy hunting! Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 11/28/2016 10:02 pm The 1979 should have all been the narrow rim, but they changed part way through the year and continued to use the side rims on the 1980 and 1981s. Here is the differences on the 1979 when compared side by side: Report this Post to the Staff
