The American Women quarters program commenced in 2022. The designs for 2023 honored Bessie Coleman, shown here, Edith Kanaka'ole, Jovita Idar, Maria Tallchief and Eleanor Roosevelt. The James Flanagan bust of Washington was dropped in favor of one done by Laura Gardin Fraser, whose design was originally selected in 1932 for the quarter but was rejected by the secretary of the Treasury. Bessie Coleman (1892-1926) was an early aviator.
