Awers (głowy) przedstawia portret Jerzego Waszyngtona. Projekt został pierwotnie skomponowany i wyrzeźbiony przez Laurę Gardin Fraser jako kandydat na ćwierćdolarówkę z 1932 roku, która uhonorowała dwusetną rocznicę urodzin Jerzego Waszyngtona.

Anna May Wong jest piątą monetą w programie American Women Quarters™. Anna May Wong była pierwszą chińsko-amerykańską gwiazdą filmową w Hollywood. Pozostawiła po sobie dziedzictwo dla kobiet w przemyśle filmowym.

Wong wystąpiła w ponad 60 filmach w swojej karierze. Oprócz ról w filmach niemych, telewizji i na scenie, dostała rolę w jednym z pierwszych filmów nakręconych w Technicolorze. Osiągnęła międzynarodowy sukces pomimo rasizmu i dyskryminacji.
