100-coin bags include circulating-quality coins from the United States Mint in Denver.

The American Women Quarters recognize a diverse group of notable American women who made significant contributions in various fields, including suffrage, civil rights, abolition, government, humanities, science, space, and the arts. The women recognized come from ethnically, racially, and geographically diverse backgrounds.

Dr. Vera Rubin was an American astronomer whose work provided evidence for the existence of dark matter. Despite challenges in gaining recognition in her field, Rubin became a significant figure in astrophysics and supported women in STEM. Her research influenced our understanding of the universe and impacts modern cosmology.

This reverse design features a profile of Dr. Vera Rubin looking upward, surrounded by a spiral galaxy and other celestial bodies. Inscriptions include “DR. VERA RUBIN,” “QUARTER DOLLAR,” “E PLURIBUS UNUM,” and “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.” The additional inscription, “DARK MATTER," is included at the bottom of the design.

The obverse (heads) depicts a portrait of George Washington. This design was originally created by Laura Gardin Fraser as a candidate entry for the 1932 quarter, honoring the bicentennial of George Washington’s birth. Inscriptions are “LIBERTY,” “IN GOD WE TRUST,” and “2025.”
