Honoring the Life and Legacy of Harriet Tubman
Harriet Tubman spent her life actively pursuing freedom and social justice for all. As one of the most recognized figures of the Underground Railroad, she guided around 70 people to freedom during her time as a conductor. She then went on to serve as a nurse, scout, and even a spy for the Union Army during the Civil War. After the Civil War, until her death in 1913, she lived a life committed to freedom, women’s suffrage, and dignity for all people. In recognition of the 2022 Bicentennial of her birth, this groundbreaking commemorative program will showcase Harriet Tubman’s life reflected in unique designs in a gold, silver, and half-dollar coins.
