The women honored are from ethnically, racially, and geographically diverse backgrounds. Reverend Dr. Pauli Murray was a poet, writer, activist, lawyer, and priest. To this day, Murray is regarded as one of the most important social justice advocates of the twentieth century. The coin’s reverse depicts Reverend Dr. Pauli Murray’s eyeglass-framed face within the shape of the word “HOPE,” which is symbolic of Murray’s belief that significant societal reforms were possible when rooted in hope. A line from her poem “Dark Testament,” characterizes hope as “A SONG IN A WEARY THROAT,” an inscription in the design. Additional inscriptions are “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,” “25₵,” “THE REVEREND DR. PAULI MURRAY,” and “E PLURIBUS UNUM.” 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’s birth. Inscriptions are “LIBERTY,” “IN GOD WE TRUST,” and “2024.” SPECIFICATIONS Denomination: Quarter Finish: Uncirculated Composition: 8.33% nickel, balance copper Weight: 5.670 grams Diameter: 0.955 inch (24.26 mm) Edge: Reeded Mint and Mint Mark: Philadelphia – P; Denver – D Privy Mark: None
