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 significance to every coin in your roll.
Reverse: The reverse depicts Zitkala-Ša in traditional Yankton Sioux dress, holding a book that symbolizes her powerful work as an author and her successful activism for Native American rights. Behind her, a stylized sun represents her groundbreaking collaboration on The Sun Dance Opera, while a cardinal honors her name, which translates to "Red Bird." A Yankton Sioux-inspired diamond pattern beneath the sun connects the design to her cultural heritage, creating a composition rich with meaning and beauty.
Why Collectors Choose This Piece
This 40-coin roll offers exceptional value for collectors building their American Women Quarters collection or investors seeking numismatic pieces with historical significance. Zitkala-Ša's remarkable journey—from the Yankton Indian Reservation to performing at the White House, from preserving oral histories to co-founding the National Council of American Indians—makes this quarter a powerful tribute to resilience and advocacy. Each roll preserves these coins in their original mint condition, offering the satisfaction of owning a complete set while honoring a woman who changed the course of American history.
