Who Was the First Woman on a U.S. Coin?

Who Was the First Woman on a U.S. Coin?

By GovMint :

The first woman to be depicted on a U.S. coin who was an actual person was Queen Isabella of Spain. She appeared on the Queen Isabella Commemorative Quarter, which was issued in 1893 to commemorate the World's Columbian Exposition in Chicago. This commemorative coin marked a significant departure from the long-standing tradition of featuring allegorical female figures like Lady Liberty on coinage.
