Yes. The US has issued many types of $1 coins since 1794, although not every year. Dollar coins have tended to be used much less in the US than in other countries because it also issues paper $1 notes and doesn't make widespread use of a $2 note or coin. The US is essentially alone among major industrialized nations in its continued use of low-denomination paper notes.

Varieties of $1 coins

> Large-size (38.1 mm) silver $1 coins were issued on and off from 1794 to 1935.

> Tiny (14 mm) gold $1 coins were issued from 1849 to 1889

> Large-size (38.1 mm) copper-nickel $1 coins were issued from 1971 to 1978.

> Medium-size (26.5 mm) copper-nickel $1 coins were issued in 1979-81 and 1999.

> Medium-size (26.5 mm) brass $1 coins have been issued since 2000.
