WASHINGTON – The 2024 United States Mint Proof Set will be available for purchase starting on March 14th at noon EDT. The set includes the third series of five coins in the American Women Quarters™ Program, the four-year initiative celebrating the accomplishments and contributions of women who have shaped our Nation’s history.
The following 10 proof coins from the United States Mint at San Francisco are included in this year’s set:
- Five 2024 American Women Quarters with reverse (tails) designs honoring Reverend Dr. Pauli Murray—poet, writer, activist, lawyer, and Episcopal priest; the Honorable Patsy Takemoto Mink—the first woman of color to serve in Congress and a champion of many causes, including Title IX legislation; Dr. Mary Edwards Walker—Civil War-era surgeon, and women’s rights and dress-reform advocate; Celia Cruz—Cuban-American singer, cultural icon, and one of the most popular Latin artists of the 20th century; and Zitkala-Ša—also known as Gertrude Simmons Bonnin—a writer, composer, educator, and political activist for Native American rights and citizenship in the early 20th century. Each coin in the American Women Quarters™ Program features a common obverse (heads) design depicting a portrait of George Washington. The 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. Inscriptions are “LIBERTY,” “IN GOD WE TRUST,” and “2024.”
- One Native American $1 Coin with a reverse design that recognizes the Indian Citizenship Act of 1924. The design features an eagle staff, an American Indian symbol of respect, honor, and patriotism, together with an American flag to represent the dual citizenship of Native Americans. Inscriptions are “United States of America,” “$1,” and “Indian Citizenship Act of 1924.” The obverse, by sculptor Glenna Goodacre, continues to feature a portrait of the central figure “Sacagawea” carrying her infant son, Jean-Baptiste. Inscriptions are “LIBERTY” and “IN GOD WE TRUST.” The coins continue to retain their distinctive edge lettering and golden color. The year of minting, mint mark, and inscription “E PLURIBUS UNUM” are incused on the edge of the coin.
