    The United States Mint American Women Quarters™ Program is a four-year series celebrating the accomplishments and contributions made by prominent women of the United States. Beginning in 2022, and continuing through 2025, the Mint is issuing five new quarters each year featuring reverse designs honoring prominent American women.
    The new 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.
    Anna May Wong left a lasting legacy for Asian American women in the entertainment industry. Her career spanned motion pictures, television, and theatre. She appeared in more than 60 movies, including silent films and one of the first made in Technicolor. She also appeared in productions on the London and New York stages. Throughout her career, she championed the need for increased representation and more multidimensional roles for Asian American actors. Wong was awarded a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 1960.She is remembered as an international film star, fashion icon, television trailblazer, and a champion for greater representation of Asian Americans in film. She continues to inspire actors and filmmakers today.
    The reverse (tails) design depicts a close-up image of Anna May Wong with her head resting on her hand, surrounded by the bright lights of a marquee sign. Inscriptions are "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA." "E PLURIBUS UNUM," "QUARTER DOLLAR," and "ANNA MAY WONG."
    The common obverse (heads) depicts a portrait of George Washington. This 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' birth. Inscriptions are "LIBERTY," "IN GOD WE TRUST." and "2022."
    PLEASE BE AWARE THAT CONTRARY TO POPULAR BELIEF, AN UNCIRCULATED COIN IS NOT ALWAYS IN PRISTINE CONDITION. IT CAN HAVE “CONTACT MARKS,” WHICH ARE SMALL DINGS AND EVEN SCRATCHES THAT CAN BE PICKED UP FROM CONTACT WITH OTHER COINS AT THE MINT. I WILL GO THROUGH A FEW IN THE ROLL IF I SEE SCRATCHES AND PICK THE BEST FOR YOU.
