Why did Susan B. Anthony want to vote?
Susan B. Anthony cast an illegal vote in 1872 because she wanted to prove that women were citizens.
==========
In 1872 women were still disenfranchised (couldn't vote) in most of the USA. In their 1871 convention, the National Woman Suffrage Association decided to encourage their members to attempt to vote and when refused, to appeal their denial under the 14th Amendment. Section 1 of that amendment says, "All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws."
The legal argument was pretty sound and by creating a conflict where a case could be established and decided in the courts, they hoped to get a ruling that women were citizens and thus were entitled to vote. Unfortunately the strategy failed due to some creative legal wranglings like finding Ms. Anthony guilty of illegally casting a vote and then not enforcing the penalty so that she couldn't have grounds to appeal.

Susan B. Anthony first entered the political arena as a member of the?
Susan B. Anthony, born February 15, 1820 in Adams, Massachusetts, was one of seven children of Daniel and Lucy Read Anthony. Though her mother had been raised a Baptist, the young Anthony was brought up in her father's Quaker faith. The Quakers, also known as the Society of Friends, believed in the concept of the Inner Light -- the representation of God in each person's soul -- and did not rely on clergy to lead them to salvation. This egalitarian ethic led many Quakers to participate in the abolitionist movement during the 19th century, including Daniel Anthony, and later, Susan B. Anthony herself. In 1849, she left teaching and her second career as an activist began. She joined the local temperance society, and when she was denied the right to speak at a Sons of Temperance meeting because she was a woman, she founded the Daughters of Temperance, the first women's temperance organization in the country. Anthony began writing temperance articles for the Lily, the country's first woman-owned newspaper. Her rising political profile helped her to meet other activist women, including those involved in the abolitionist movement and suffrage movement. She met Elizabeth Cady Stanton in 1851, three years after Stanton organized the first woman's rights convention in Seneca Falls, New York. In 1852, Anthony attended her first women's-rights conference, and from then until the end of the Civil War, she campaigned and lectured for the abolition of slavery and for equal rights for women.

What is the value of uncirculated Susan B. Anthony dollars?
You have what's called a "blank planchet" or "flan". Currently an SBA flan retails for about $35.
Thousands of coin blanks are punched at high speed out of huge rolls of metal and moved to the presses in wheeled bins, so it's not surprising that every so often one of them spills out and doesn't go through the press that strikes its design on the blank.
How much is a circulated 1979 susan b anthony silver dollar worth?
In all honesty, unless it is a proof, or is the near date variety (the date is almost touching the rim on them), the coins are in all actuality worth about $1 unless in the original mint packaging and then they might be worth a bit more. But really, collector demand for Susan B Anthony dollars are nearly non-existent, most collectors view them as ugly coins and few dealers will buy them unless they are in proof condition because they will just sit on the shelf. Yes, your uncirculated coins are probably "worth" $2-3, but since collector demand is so incredibly low for these coins, you most likely won't get it.
What is the value of a 1776-1976 Susan B. Anthony dollar?
There is no such coin. All 1776-1976 Bicentennial dollars have a portrait of President Eisenhower! Huge numbers were struck so any circulated one that you find will only be worth face value to maybe $1.10.
The first Anthony dollars were made in 1979. Again, enormous numbers were made and they're only worth $1 unless you have an uncirculated specimen in its Mint packaging.
How much a 1905 susan b Anthony coin is worth?
That's not Susan B. Anthony on the dime, it's Liberty. Anthony was on small dollar coins in 1979-81. Dimes from the 1940s are common and generally only worth their silver content, which at present is a little over $2.
