I wonder when they'll give the quarter (and collectors?) a break from the constant commemorative designs and stick with a standard design for a few years. I'm sure there are plenty of people who have been enjoying the various programs over the years and there have been plenty of good designs but with a new set of commemorative coins every year for over a quarter century it's not really special, noteworthy, or exciting to me anymore. 

2026 is already set for the US Semiquincentennial.

I wonder when they'll give the quarter (and collectors?) a break from the constant commemorative designs and stick with a standard design for a few years. I'm sure there are plenty of people who have been enjoying the various programs over the years and there have been plenty of good designs but with a new set of commemorative coins every year for over a quarter century it's not really special, noteworthy, or exciting to me anymore. 

I take your point that with 5 new coins every year since 1999, they all start to blur. But atleast avid young collectors can find them in change for $0.25 a piece and enjoy the “hunt”. That’s growing increasingly difficult in other parts of the world like Europe and even here in Canada. 

Not just young collectors.  I got my first 2024 Rev. Dr. Pauli Murray quarter in change from a vending machine a couple of days ago and couldn't wait to get home to add it to my collection.  Definitely not the same feeling to get last year's design with a new date only.

The 2024 red book says that the circulating collectible coin redesign act of 2020 decided that the quarter “will  continue to be a canvas for numismatic art” 

the women’s quarters will stop production in 2025, and as rsirian1 said there will be semiquincententennial quarters in 2026.

 From 2027 to 2030 the mint will issue 5 quarters every year, each one highlighting a different sport, so 4 quarters per sport.

 The act also allows the mint to make  themed medals per sport in silver to go along with the quarters, thus there are 20 quarters and 5 medals to collect.

 The Philadelphia mint will also design and manufacture the Olympic award medals for the U.S. Olympic Games of 2028. From 2030 to 2034 there will be a brief break of quarter mintage and in 2035 the quarter will bear  a  new likeness of George Washington and a new reverse design. So @duesenburg, the quarter will stop being lovely art  in 2030.

Update: The designs have been selected and finalized:

Iam still looking for some of the 2023 ones. But last week got a Dr Mary Walker 2024 P. They have been very slow to show up here.

I only have 3 of the 2024's not counting Proofs or Mint UNC set.  I only count them if I receive them in normal change.

I still need a Maria Tallchief D. For 2023. And for 2024 only have,Dr Mary Walker P, Patsy Takemoto Mink Dand P, Rev Pauli Murry D. Getting out from change. 

I only have 3 coins (Sally Ride, Wilma Mankiller and Maya Angelou).

I liked this series and was glad they did not just do rich white women, but covered a true spectrum including Black, Hispanic, First Nations, Asian, Disabled, Gay/Lesbian, and Trans women. Even with the white women, we got a mix of more self made ones like Dr Sally Ride and non Anglo Celtic white women like Vera Rubin (I suspect Jewish). It shows that not everyone in America is some intolerant MAGA orange dummy type.

I would like to complete the set eventually as its a nice set.

Looking forward to the quarter millenial sets (I have no idea what 250 is in anniversary words, sesqui means 150), but it will be massive as in 1926, it was one half dollar and the 3 coin set in 1976.

Can't say the sports series will amuse me much. Never been a fan of any competitive sport and I feel free time should be about intellectual rather than brawn based enhancement. Plus the politics and competitiveness of big sports puts me off (Medal count Olympics, parochial pride over Rugby and Football, sports hooligans, overpaid athletes etc).
