Cool idea. Glad to see it coming to reality this year:
American Women Quarters Program is a four-year program that celebrates the accomplishments and contributions made by women to the development and history of our country. Beginning in 2022, and continuing through 2025, the U.S. Mint will issue up to five new reverse designs each year. The obverse of each coin will maintain a likeness of George Washington, but is different from the design used during the previous quarter program.
The first 5 being honored on quarters are:
Maya Angelou – celebrated writer, performer, and social activist
Dr. Sally Ride – physicist, astronaut, educator, and first American woman in space
Wilma Mankiller – first female principal chief of the Cherokee Nation
Nina Otero-Warren – a leader in New Mexico’s suffrage movement and the first female superintendent of Santa Fe public schools
Anna May Wong – first Chinese American film star in Hollywood
I am excited to start seeing these in circulation later in the year!
And that one last name...... "MANKILLER"...... yikes!
Grace & Peace & Love to you all -
