Brillant Uncirculated complete P, D, & S quarter set of the famous American aviator "Bessie Coleman", which includes the very very scarce "S" mint quarter.  The coins will arrive in a 2X6 plastic holder.  This set includes "3" coins. 

 Additional Bessie Coleman information

The obverse (heads) depicts a portrait of George Washington, originally composed and sculpted by Laura Gardin Fraser to mark George Washington’s 200th birthday. A recommended design for the 1932 quarter, then-Treasury Secretary Mellon ultimately selected the familiar John Flanagan design.

The reverse (tails) depicts Bessie Coleman as she suits up in preparation for flight. Her expression is reflective of her determination to take to the skies, the only place she experienced a freedom she did not have on the ground.
