WASHINGTON, Feb. 26, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The 2021 United States Mint Proof Set (product code 21RG) will be available for purchase starting on March 5 at noon EST. This year's set includes the following San Francisco-minted coins:

  • One America the Beautiful Quarters Program Coin honoring the Tuskegee - - Airmen National Historic Site in Alabama
  • This is the final release in the program. Its reverse (tails) depicts a Tuskegee Airman pilot suiting up to join the fight during World War II with the Moton Field control tower in the background. The pilot looks upward with pride and confidence as two P-51 Mustangs pass overhead. The inscription "THEY FOUGHT TWO WARS" is arced across the top as a reference to the dual battles the Tuskegee Airmen fought—fascism abroad and racial discrimination at home. Inscriptions are "TUSKEGEE AIRMEN," "ALABAMA," "2021," and "E PLURIBUS UNUM." The obverse (heads) features the 1932 portrait of George Washington by sculptor John Flanagan, with the inscriptions "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA," "LIBERTY," "IN GOD WE TRUST," and "QUARTER DOLLAR."
  • One General George Washington Crossing the Delaware Quarter
  • This coin's obverse (heads) design marks a return to the familiar depiction of George Washington by John Flanagan as it appeared on the quarter from 1932 to 1998. The design was modified for the 50 State Quarters and America the Beautiful Quarters Programs. In this new depiction, Washington's portrait is larger, with higher relief. Inscriptions are "LIBERTY," "IN GOD WE TRUST," and "2021." The reverse (tails) features General George Washington commanding his troops through the overnight crossing of the ice-choked Delaware River prior to the Battle of Trenton during the American Revolutionary War. Inscriptions are "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA," "E PLURIBUS UNUM," "CROSSING THE DELAWARE," and "QUARTER DOLLAR."
  • One Native American $1 Coin
  • The 2021 coin theme is Native Americans in the U.S. Military. The reverse (tails) design depicts eagle feathers, which were traditionally earned in battle or by performing a brave deed. Eagle feathers are revered, receiving the utmost care and handling, and are to be displayed proudly in homes. Stars representing five branches of the U.S. Military are in the foreground, and a circle provides an additional reference to Native Americans. Inscriptions include "NATIVE AMERICANS – DISTINGUISHED MILITARY SERVICE SINCE 1775," "$1," and "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA."
  • One Kennedy half dollar
  • One Roosevelt dime
  • One Jefferson nickel, and
  • One Lincoln penny.

The coins are sealed in two lenses and packaged in a decorative carton emblazoned with an image of the Washington Monument at sunrise on the front and coin images on the back. The Mint's Certificate of Authenticity accompanies each set.

The 2021 United States Mint Proof Set is priced at $32.00. To set up a REMIND ME alert for this product, visit https://catalog.usmint.gov/proof-set-2021-21RG.html (product code 21RG)
