1 dollar 1965 to 1989 - Price guide and values

The price to produce a 100% nickel dollar coin became too high in the 80's. The Mint decided to replace the coin completely including composition, size and design. With the introduction of the $ 1 coin in 1987, the issuing of $ 1 notes ended in 1989.

SP (Specimen): Special collectors coins struck at the Mint with a frosted/mirror appearance on the design and effigy from 1996 to 2024. Before 1996, if specimen coins have been removed from their protective envelope or original package, it is harder to differentiate them from PL coins. Specimen coins are struck up to two times on numismatic presses.
