The American Women Quarters™ Program celebrates American women. From 2022 through 2025, the U.S. Mint will release up to five new circulating quarters each year. Each reverse (tails) will honor a different woman and her impact on our country. The women will be from a variety of fields and have diverse backgrounds.
The obverse (heads) shows a portrait of George Washington. But instead of the familiar left-facing image, Washington faces to the right. It was created by famous sculptor Laura Gardin Fraser for the 1932 quarter, but was never used.
Learn more about these quarters and the women they honor on the U.S. Mint website.
