Anyone else noticed this ??

The 2021 Quarters for Crossing The Delaware:

1) Have been returned to the standard Washington Obverse design
2) Have been mistakenly added to the ATB/NP Series
3) Should be moved to the Washington Quarters Registry Set(s) - with the Reverse identity as details

2021-S Crossing The Delaware Proof
2021-S Crossing The Delaware Silver Proof

C'mon PCGS - GET YOUR ACT TOGETHER !!!

    It is a bit concerning that the 2021 quarters sat in Registry Sets for the better part of a year before they were activated for Ranking/Rating - and the issue was never noticed

    I cannot explain why the US Mint didn't add a 6th coin to 2020 to wrap up the ATB Series - but it was fairly simple to validate the error by checking 2021 Proof Set for content at the US Mint website:

    The final quarter in the America the Beautiful Quarters® Program series honoring the Tuskegee Airmen National Historic Site in Alabama. The reverse design depicts a Tuskegee Airman pilot suiting up to join the fight during World War II with the Moton Field control tower in the background. The pilot looks upward with pride and confidence as two P- 51 Mustangs pass overhead. The inscription “THEY FOUGHT TWO WARS” is arced across the top as a reference to the dual battles the Tuskegee Airmen fought – fascism abroad and racial discrimination at home. Inscriptions are “TUSKEGEE AIRMEN,” “ALABAMA,” “2021,” and “E PLURIBUS UNUM.”

    One General George Washington Crossing the Delaware Quarter featuring an obverse (heads) design that marks a return to the familiar depiction of George Washington by John Flanagan as it appeared on the quarter from 1932 to 1998. The image was modified for the 50 State Quarters, the DC and U.S. Territories Quarters, and the America the Beautiful Quarters Programs. In this revived depiction, Washington’s portrait is larger and with higher relief. Inscriptions are “LIBERTY,” “IN GOD WE TRUST,” and “2021.” The reverse (tails) design features General George Washington commanding his troops through the overnight crossing of the ice-choked Delaware River prior to the Battle of Trenton during the American Revolutionary War. Inscriptions are "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA," "E PLURIBUS UNUM," "CROSSING THE DELAWARE," and "QUARTER DOLLAR.”
