The Artistry Behind the Coin

Obverse: The obverse showcases Laura Gardin Fraser's elegant portrait of George Washington, originally sculpted in 1931 to commemorate Washington's 200th birthday. Though recommended for the 1932 quarter, this design was passed over in favor of John Flanagan's familiar profile. Nearly a century later, Fraser's vision finally graces America's circulating coinage, offering collectors a fresh perspective on our first president with refined detail and graceful composition that honors both Washington and Fraser's artistic legacy.

Reverse: The reverse design honors Ida B. Wells' extraordinary contributions as an investigative journalist who courageously documented lynchings and racial violence in the post-Reconstruction South, a suffragist who fought for women's voting rights, and a civil rights activist whose work laid the foundation for the modern civil rights movement. The design captures her strength, determination, and unwavering commitment to truth and justice, emblematic of her lifelong crusade against injustice and inequality.
