The Artistry Behind the Coin
Obverse: The obverse presents a stunning portrait of George Washington, originally composed and sculpted by Laura Gardin Fraser to commemorate Washington's 200th birthday. Though recommended for the 1932 quarter, this elegant design was passed over in favor of John Flanagan's familiar profile. Now, nearly a century later, Fraser's artistic vision finally graces America's circulating coinage, adding historical depth to each coin in your set.
Reverse: The reverse features a dignified portrait of Nina Otero-Warren on the left, flanked by three individual yucca flowers—New Mexico's state flower. This thoughtful composition connects Otero-Warren to her beloved New Mexico while symbolizing the strength and resilience she demonstrated throughout her life. The yucca's hardy nature mirrors her determination to advance voting rights and educational opportunities for all New Mexicans, creating a design that beautifully captures both regional pride and national significance.
Why Collectors Choose This Piece
This 2-coin set offers an affordable entry point for collectors building their American Women Quarters collection or those who appreciate coins celebrating social justice and education reform. Nina Otero-Warren recognized the importance of reaching Hispanic women in their own language during the suffrage fight and spearheaded the lobbying effort to ratify the 19th Amendment in New Mexico. As the first female superintendent of Santa Fe public schools, she championed bicultural education and worked to preserve the cultural practices of Hispanic and Native American communities. By acquiring both mint marks, you'll own a complete representation of this historic release while honoring a woman who understood that true progress includes everyone.
