The 2022 American Women Quarters Proof Set features all five 2022 American Women Quarters. They are packaged in a protective lens to showcase and maintain their exceptional proof finish.
This set is the first annual release in the four-year series of this new program celebrating the accomplishments and contributions made by women to the development and history of the U.S. Beginning in 2022, and continuing through 2025, the Mint will issue five new quarters each year featuring reverse designs honouring prominent American women.
Each coin in this series features a common obverse (heads) design depicting a portrait of George Washington. This design was originally composed and sculpted by Laura Gardin Fraser as a candidate entry for the 1932 quarter, which honoured the bicentennial of George Washington’s birth. The inscriptions are “LIBERTY,” “IN GOD WE TRUST,” and “2022.”
The American Women Quarters reverse (tails) designs honour a diverse group of notable American women who made significant contributions in a variety of fields, including suffrage, civil rights, abolition, government, humanities, science, space, and the arts. The women honoured are from ethnically, racially, and geographically diverse backgrounds.
Each set is accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity. |
