The design won out over thousands of proposals submitted to a contest sponsored by Alabama\u2019s former governor Don Siegelman (D). The Mint issued the coin last week, offering it for sale on its Web site and formally launching the coin today. But Bailey said several more weeks of circulation likely will be needed before area residents can begin to find the coin in their pockets.<\/p>\n<p>Ironically, in May 2013 an event was held at&nbsp;Christie\u2019s auction house to celebrate the 2013 Spirit of Helen Keller Gala,&nbsp;organized by Helen Keller International, at which Clinton <a href=\"https:\/\/hauteliving.com\/2013\/05\/spirit-of-hellen-keller-gala-hillary-clinton\/360832\/\">accepted&nbsp;<\/a>the Helen Keller Humanitarian Award.<\/p>\n<p>The news site Clinton linked to, 19th News, <a href=\"https:\/\/19thnews.org\/2021\/05\/here-are-the-pioneering-women-who-will-be-on-new-quarters\/\">wrote<\/a> on May 20, 2021, then updated on Monday the following:<\/p>\n<p><em>Beginning in 2022, women\u2019s faces will circulate through the nation\u2019s currency on quarters \u2014 something long overdue, according to Rep. Barbara Lee, a California Democrat who has been working on this legislation since 2017.&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cI wanted to make sure that women would be honored, and their images and names be lifted up on our coins. I mean, it\u2019s outrageous that we haven\u2019t,\u201d Lee said. \u201cHopefully the public really delves into who these women were, because these women have made such a contribution to our country in so many ways.\u201d&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The goddess of liberty also appeared on a quarter that was minted from 1916-1930 in a coin named the Standing Liberty quarter.<\/p>\n<p>Maya Angelou will be featured on the first new quarter, starting circulation in February; a quarter featuring astronaut Sally Ride will follow.<\/p>\n<p>Lee added, \u201cI think it\u2019s important that the public understands and knows how to weigh in on this\u2026.That\u2019s a mammoth kind of effort that we\u2019re mounting, but we\u2019re getting the word out. \u2026 I think it is a good organizing tool that communities should use, and have children kind of tell stories and do the research and come up with who they think would be the woman that should be submitted\u2026.It\u2019s about time that people who exchange currency and coins understand that women deserve things.
