What is a 1979 near date dollar?
The 1979 Near Date dollar, also known as the 1979 Wide Rim dollar, shows the date on the front (obverse) of the coin much closer to the rim than normal. This was caused by slight modifications to the coin during production of the 1979 Susan B. Anthony dollars and is known only to exist on the 1979-P dollar coins from the Philadelphia Mint.
