Description

The 2011 (W) Eliza Johnson First Spouse Ten Dollar Gold, struck at the West Point Mint, is part of the First Spouse Gold 2007 to Date collection. With a mintage of 2,905, this is a rare issue — the highest mintage among 4 variants, accounting for 29% of the year's production. The obverse features a portrait of the presidential spouse (or a representation of Liberty for unmarried presidents) and the reverse displays a scene from the life of the featured spouse. Wife of Andrew Johnson who managed their household while he pursued politics and taught him to read and write. A modern issue from an era of rotating coin designs, collector-focused programs, and renewed interest in numismatic artistry. West Point's facility evolved from a bullion storage depot into a key coin production center, now responsible for many commemorative and precious-metal issues. Estimated market value is approximately $5.1K. Struck in 99.99% gold, weighing 15.55 grams, 26.5 mm in diameter, with a reeded edge. Cataloged as PCGS #506966.
