First Spouse Gold Coins
The United States Mint honors our nation’s first spouses by issuing one-half ounce $10 gold coins featuring their images in the order they served as first spouse. The Mint issues First Spouse Gold Coins on the same schedule as the Presidential $1 Coins honoring the presidents. The First Spouse Gold Coins Program is authorized by the Presidential $1 Coin Act of 2005 (Public Law 109-145).
When a president served without a first spouse, a gold coin is issued bearing an obverse image emblematic of Liberty as depicted on a circulating coin of that era and a reverse image emblematic of a theme of that president’s life. The coin is inscribed with the years and order of that president’s term.
