Product Description
The American Women Quarters Program honors the trailblazing women of our nation whose indelible contributions — whether through art, science, humanities and more — have led to the betterment of our country.
In the second year of the series you'll meet Bessie Coleman, the first black woman pilot; Edith Kanaka'ole, indigenous Hawaiian composer; Eleanor Roosevelt, first lady, author, and human rights advocate; Jovita Idar, Mexican-American journalist and activist; and Maria Talllcheif, the first American prima Ballerina. Each coin is double-struck for crisp, raised-relief, frosted-finish engravings that contrast with stunning mirror backgrounds.
