This is a variety that occurs on some of the 1979-P Susan B. Anthony dollars.
It's also known as the near date variety.
The wider rim makes it appear that the date is much closer to the rim than normal.
If you have a wide rim Anthony, the date will be almost touching the rim with only a very small space between them. Compare the 1979 wide rim to any other Anthony dollar and you will readily see the difference. If you see no difference then your is probably not a wide rim.
No U.S. one dollar coin is called a "Liberty" dollar. By the date 1979 your coin is a Susan B. Anthony dollar. The 1979 Wide Rim (near date) variety was only produced at the Philadelphia Mint so a "S" mintmark coin can't be a wide rim coin. Unless the coin is a high grade Mint State example it's just face value.
Unless it's a wide-rim variety, it's only worth one dollar (assuming the question is about the value).

The coin was struck at all 3 mints and is still in circulation, none contain any silver and most are just face value. The 1979 Philadelphia issue has a wide rim (near date) type that has a premium. Take it to a coin dealer, it may be worth a few dollars.
Most are face value only with the exception of 1979p wide rim that in uncirculated condition is about $10.00.
It's on the reverse between the tip of the eagles tail and below the word one near the rim.

Unfortunately only one of the of the Susan B. Anthony dollars made for general circulation is worth more than face value. The 1979 "P" Wide rim (near date) variety. Other than that, only Proof and collectors coins sold from the US Mint are worth more. None of the coins have been made from silver, if it's not one of the Wide Rim type, just spend it.

I suggest you take it to a coin shop and have it appraised.
