2020-P $1 Silver Women’s Suffrage Centennial Proof NGC PF70UC First Releases w/Liberty Bell Label

Commemorating Women’s Right to Vote

For decades, American women were denied the right to vote. Some of the reasons put forth to refuse them this basic right included such shockingly sexist excuses as “a woman’s brain involved emotion rather than intellect” and “the masculine mind was dominated by judgment while the feminine mind was ruled by emotion.” But when the 19th Amendment granting women the right to vote was finally ratified on August 18, 1920 it triumphantly put to rest those painful chauvinistic notions.

To pay tribute to the 100th Anniversary of this historic moment in American history, the United States Mint in 2020 issued a distinctive commemorative silver dollar that honors the long struggle women suffragettes endured to make that moment happen. In addition to commemorating the centennial of the 19th Amendment’s ratification, the coin was released with a goal of increasing public awareness about the women’s suffrage movement.

Struck in 26.73 grams of highly pure 99.9% fine silver, this fabulous coin captures the many decades the suffrage movement spanned with a trio of women, each symbolizing the women from those long-ago eras who fought bravely and tenaciously to make the 19th Amendment a reality. The coin’s reverse shows “2020” being dropped into a ballot box decorated with a button that reads “VOTES FOR WOMEN.” Fittingly, the obverse and reverse designs were created by prominent women artists. They were designed by U.S. Mint Artistic Infusion Program (AIP) artist Christina Hess and sculpted by U.S. Mint Medallic Artist Phebe Hemphill.

Each 2020-P Women’s Suffrage Centennial Silver Dollar Proof available here was struck at the “Mother Mint” in Philadelphia and comes graded by the Numismatic Guaranty Corporation (NGC) in flawless Proof-70 Ultra Cameo (PF70UC) condition, a distinction that means these perfectly-graded proof have ZERO imperfections — showing all features and fields exactly as the engraver and mint intended.
