Women’s Suffrage Centennial Silver Dollar
The obverse design on the coin features the three different women wearing different attire. The various hats obliquely reference that the struggle for Women’s Suffrage spanned over many decades. The woman in the foreground is wearing an art deco hat that features a button marked with the year 1920, the year that the 19th Amendment was adopted. The inscriptions “LIBERTY,” “$1” and “E PLURIBUS UNUM” surround the image of the women.
The reverse design features a ballot box with a ballot marked “2020” being deposited. The design on the box features art deco elements, further referencing 1920. The inscriptions “VOTES FOR WOMEN” “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA” and “IN GOD WE TRUST” appear on the ballot box. Christina Hess of the U.S. Mint’s Artistic Infusion Program designed both the obverse and reverse of the coin. The U.S. Mint’s Phebe Hemphill engraved both sides of the coin.
The coin will be struck in both Proof quality and the standard collector finish on .999 fine silver planchets weighing 26.73 grams.
