Washington, DC, Aug. 22, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The 2024 United States Mint (Mint) Uncirculated Coin Set will be available for purchase on August 29 at noon ET.  The set contains two cards of 10 coins each, one from the Mint facility at Philadelphia and the other from the Mint facility at Denver, for a total of 20 coins.  Each of the two cards, which incorporate the certificates of authenticity, includes the following 2024-dated coins with uncirculated finishes:

  •  All Five 2024 American Women Quarters honoring: 
    • Reverend Dr. Pauli Murray – a poet, writer, activist, lawyer, and Episcopal priest.  Murray is regarded as one of the most important social justice advocates of the 20th century. 
    • Honorable Patsy Takemoto Mink – as a Member of Congress, she fought for gender and racial equality, affordable childcare, and bilingual education.  Mink was the champion of Title IX legislation in Congress, prohibiting sex discrimination in any education program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance.  Title IX was posthumously renamed the Patsy T. Mink Equal Opportunity in Education Act. 
    • Dr. Mary Edwards Walker – a Civil War era surgeon, and women’s rights and dress-reform advocate.  Walker relentlessly pursued her desire to serve as a surgeon during the Civil War, and in 1863 she became the first woman U.S. Army surgeon as a “Contract Acting Assistant Surgeon (civilian).”  To date, Walker is the only woman to be awarded the Medal of Honor. 
    • Celia Cruz – a Cuban-American singer, cultural icon, and one of the most popular Latin artists of the 20th century.  Known as the international “Queen of Salsa,” Cruz’s numerous honors and awards include four Latin Grammy awards, the National Medal of Arts, and countless lifetime achievement awards. 
    • Zitkala-Ša – also known as Gertrude Simmons Bonnin, a writer, composer, educator, and political activist for Native American rights and citizenship in the early 20th century.  Zitkala-Ša was staunchly opposed to the annihilation of indigenous culture through forced assimilation after she was forced to give up her own Native American customs and traditions in exchange for education.  Additionally, her advocacy work directly led to the passage of the Indian Citizenship Act of 1924, which granted American Indians U.S. citizenship while still maintaining their tribal standing and citizenship.

  •  One Native American $1 Coin honoring the Indian Citizenship Act of 1924.  The design features an eagle staff, an American Indian symbol of respect, honor, and patriotism, together with an American flag to represent the dual citizenship of Native Americans.  Inscriptions include “United States of America,” “$1,” and “Indian Citizenship Act of 1924.”

  • One Kennedy half dollar
