Authorized by the Circulating Collectible Coin Redesign Act of 2020 (Public Law 116-330), the American Women Quarters Program is a four-year series that celebrates the accomplishments made by a diverse group of American women from a wide range of fields to the development and history of the United States. Each year, from 2022 through 2025, up to five new quarters will be issued with a new reverse design featuring an image of the particular woman being honored with that coin.
The obverse features a different profile of George Washington than the portrait designed by John Flanagan that appeared on the quarter from 1932 to 2021. Instead, the obverse features a right-facing portrait of Washington created by renowned sculptor Laura Gardin Fraser.
