2022 U.S. Mint 10 Coin Silver Proof Set in OGP box with COA
The 2022 United States Mint Silver Proof Set features 10 proof coins
encased in two clear plastic lenses in a beautifully designed package
you’ll be proud to display. The quarters, dime, and half dollar are
struck in 99.9 percent silver. The 2022 Silver Proof Set is a great
addition to any collection.
The 2022 United States Mint Silver Proof Set includes the following coins:
All five 2022 American Women Quarters packaged in their own protective lens to showcase and maintain their exceptional proof finish.
These coins are the first five released in the new four-year series
celebrating the accomplishments and contributions made by women to the
development and history of the U.S. Beginning in 2022, and continuing
through 2025, the Mint will issue five new quarters each year featuring
reverse designs honoring prominent American women.
Each coin in this series features a common obverse (heads) design
depicting 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. The inscriptions are “LIBERTY,” “IN GOD WE TRUST,” and “2022.”
The American Women Quarters reverse (tails) designs honor diverse and
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.
The 2022 reverse designs of these coins honor these prominent women:
Maya Angelou
The design depicts Maya Angelou with her arms uplifted. Behind her are a
bird in flight and a rising sun, images inspired by her poetry and
symbolic of the way she lived. The silhouette of the bird depicts a
purple martin, a songbird common to her birthplace. Inscriptions are
“UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,” “MAYA ANGELOU,” “E PLURIBUS UNUM,” and
“QUARTER DOLLAR.”
Dr. Sally Ride
The design depicts Dr. Sally Ride next to a window on the space shuttle,
inspired by her quote, “But when I wasn’t working, I was usually at a
window looking down at Earth.” The inscription “E PLURIBUS UNUM” is
intentionally positioned over the Earth next to America, indicating that
out of all women in the U.S., she was the first in space. Additional
inscriptions are “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,” “QUARTER DOLLAR,” and “DR.
SALLY RIDE.”
Wilma Mankiller
This design depicts Wilma Mankiller with a resolute gaze to the future.

“WILMA MANKILLER,” “PRINCIPAL CHIEF,” and the name of the Cherokee
Nation written in the Cherokee syllabary.

(tails) design in the series. The 2021 design honors Native American

are to be displayed proudly in homes. Stars representing five branches
of the U.S. Military are in the foreground. A circle, a symbol with deep
meaning to Native Americans, connects all the elements. Inscriptions
