Description
The 2012 (W) Alice Paul First Spouse Ten Dollar Gold is a dollar produced at the West Point Mint as part of the First Spouse Gold 2007 to Date series. With a mintage of 2,798, this is a rare issue — the highest mintage among 4 variants, accounting for 28% 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. Chester Arthur's wife Ellen died before his presidency; the coin honors suffragist Alice Paul and the women's rights movement instead. The reverse depicts a suffrage parade participant with a "Votes for Women" banner. A modern issue from an era of rotating coin designs, collector-focused programs, and renewed interest in numismatic artistry. Struck at the West Point Mint, originally a bullion depository that became a full coin production facility, specializing in commemorative and bullion 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 #512919.
