The Susan B. Anthony dollar coin is sometimes colloquially referred to as the 'Carter quarter' due to its association with the presidency of Jimmy Carter. This nickname arose because the coin was introduced during Carter's administration, and its similar size and appearance to the quarter led to confusion, thus the humorous moniker.
