Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Frederick Douglass National Historic Site quarter is that it features a portrait of Frederick Douglass, an African American social reformer, abolitionist, and statesman, on the obverse (front side), which is a departure from the traditional portrait of George Washington that appears on most Washington quarters. This design change was made to honor Douglass' legacy and to recognize his contributions to American history and the fight for freedom and equality.
