American Women Quarters 2023 Ornament - Eleanor Roosevelt

The American Women Quarters 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.

Eleanor Roosevelt was an author, reformer, civil liberties and human rights advocate, Chairperson for the United Nations’ Commission on Human Rights, and politically active and influential first lady.

The ornament’s design elements of doves, hands holding a globe, and scales of justice symbolize her fierce advocacy of global human rights, diplomacy, and conflict resolution. The ring of pearls pays tribute to her most iconic jewelry. Her prolific writing of many books, countless articles, speeches, and newspaper columns is also represented on the ornament. The Americana bunting and stars and stripes décor pay tribute to her service and status as one of America’s most influential and accomplished first ladies.

Framed by the ornament is a 2023 quarter with the reverse (tails) design depicting Roosevelt and the scales of justice against a backdrop representing the globe, symbolic of her impactful work with the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Inscriptions are “UNITED STATES of AMERICA,” “QUARTER DOLLAR,” “E PLURIBUS UNUM,” “ELEANOR ROOSEVELT,” and “UNIVERSAL DECLARATION OF HUMAN RIGHTS.”
