Celebrate the brilliance and trailblazing legacy of Anna May Wong with this exquisite 2022 American Women Quarters Ornament, part of the United States Mint’s American Women Quarters™ Program (2022–2025)—a historic collection honoring the extraordinary accomplishments of American women who shaped our nation’s story through courage, creativity, and leadership.

A Tribute to an Icon of Cinema and Representation

Born in Los Angeles, Anna May Wong left an enduring legacy as the first Chinese American movie star in Hollywood. Her remarkable career spanned film, television, and theatre, with over 60 screen credits including early silent films and pioneering Technicolor productions. Wong used her fame to advocate for greater inclusion, representation, and multidimensional roles for Asian American actors in a time of deep-seated stereotyping.

Design Details

This beautifully hand-crafted ornament, made of solid brass with a rhodium finish, pays tribute to Wong’s artistry and cultural impact.

Intricate design elements include:

A clapboard and theatrical lighting symbolizing her film achievements

A movie film reel encircling the coin, representing her lasting cinematic influence

Marquee lights reflecting her role as a luminous Hollywood star and cultural pioneer

These details capture both her creative legacy and her bold advocacy for diversity in the arts.
