| Additional information |
Mary Walker remains the only woman to have received the Medal of Honor, awarded for her service as a surgeon during the Civil War — a commission she performed without official rank for most of the conflict, as the Army refused to formally enlist female physicians. She was captured by Confederate forces in 1864 and held as a prisoner of war before being exchanged. The Medal of Honor was rescinded in 1917 under revised eligibility criteria, then restored posthumously in 1977.
The .999 silver version of this quarter is a collector-market issue, struck separately from the clad circulation pieces.
