    The 2022 American Women Quarters Silver Proof Set™ features all
    five 2022 American Women Quarters minted in 99.9 percent silver. 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 honoring 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 honored the bicentennial of George Washington’s
    birth. The inscriptions are “LIBERTY,” “IN GOD WE TRUST,” and “2022.”

    The American Women Quarters reverse (tails) designs honor 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 honored
    are from ethnically, racially, and geographically diverse backgrounds.

    The 2022 reverses (tails) of these coins honor the following American Women:

    Maya Angelou

    The design depicts Maya Angelou with her arms uplifted. Behind her are a
    bird in flight and a rising sun, images inspired by her poetry and
    symbolic of the way she lived. The silhouette of the bird depicts a
    purple martin, a songbird common to Ms. Angelou’s birthplace. The
    inscriptions are “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,” “MAYA ANGELOU,” “E PLURIBUS
    UNUM,” and “QUARTER DOLLAR.”

    Sally Ride

    The design depicts Dr. Sally Ride next to a window on the space shuttle,
    inspired by her quote, “But when I wasn’t working, I was usually at a
    window looking down at Earth.” The inscription “E PLURIBUS UNUM” is
    intentionally positioned over the Earth next to America, indicating that
    out of all women in the United States, Dr. Ride was the first into
    space. The additional inscriptions are “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,”
    “QUARTER DOLLAR,” and “DR. SALLY RIDE.”

    Wilma Mankiller

    This design depicts Wilma Mankiller with a resolute gaze to the future.
    The wind is at her back, and she is wrapped in a traditional shawl. To
    her left is the seven- pointed star of the Cherokee Nation. The
    inscriptions are “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,” “E PLURIBUS UNUM,” “QUARTER
    DOLLAR,” “WILMA MANKILLER,” “PRINCIPAL CHIEF,” and the name of the
    Cherokee Nation written in the Cherokee syllabary.

    Nina Otero-Warren

    This design features an image of Adelina (Nina) Otero-Warren on the
    left, flanked by three individual Yucca flowers – New Mexico’s state
    flower. The inscriptions are “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,” “QUARTER
    DOLLAR,” “E PLURIBUS UNUM,” “NINA OTERO-WARREN,” and “VOTO PARA LA
    MUJER,” the Spanish counterpart for the suffragist slogan “Votes for
    Women.”

    Anna May Wong

    This design features a close-up image of Anna May Wong with her head
    resting on her hand, surrounded by the bright lights of a marquee sign.
    The inscriptions are “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,” “E PLURIBUS UNUM,”
    “QUARTER DOLLAR,” and “ANNA MAY WONG.”
