The Queen of Salsa will soon be honored with a quarter of her own. Cuban American icon Celia Cruz is appearing on new coins for 2024, the U.S. Mint announced last week. The late singer was one of the most celebrated artists of the 20th century. Her work "captured the unique vibrancy and magic of Latin music, and won the hearts of millions across the globe," the Celia Cruz Legacy Project Archive and Research Center writes. The U.S. Mint is honoring Cruz through the American Women Quarters Program, which features coins with designs created to honor the legacy and diverse accomplishments of American women throughout history. The program, which began in 2022 and will continue through 2025, issues five quarters each year. Visit the link in bio for more information
