FG stands for Frank Gasparro, the coin's designer.
I assume you have a small dollar coin with a picture of Susan B. Anthony on the front and an image of the Apollo Mission eagle on the back. This was a standard-issue coin at the time and is worth only face value, unless it's a Proof coin in its original holder.
