First Spouse gold: the portrait or Liberty design identifies the issue
A related bronze medal is a different collecting object.
By SalarsNet · Reviewed October 5, 2026
Half-ounce gold and a ten-dollar value
First Spouse gold coins pair named spouses or substitute Liberty designs with the presidential sequence. The coins contain one half troy ounce of .9999 gold and carry a ten-dollar value. Identify subject, date, mint, and finish; a similar bronze medal cannot share the gold specification.

The product’s surfaces and contents
Inspect portrait, reverse, fields, rims, and edge for contacts, hairlines, or spots. Verify certification and packaging when included. A proof and uncirculated example can share a subject while requiring different comparisons.

Low sales do not count survivors
A reported sales total needs its finish and product definition. Melting may affect later availability, but an unsupported survivor estimate should remain unknown. Use the verified gold amount with a current quote, then matched completed sales for a collector premium. Keep medals and full sets outside a single gold-coin comparison.

Selected reviewed issue records
These catalog standards describe the named issue, not a measured specimen. The selected records below do not cover every date, mint, strike, or die variety. Reported production is labeled separately from established mintage. Unknown standards and mintage remain visible; survival estimates and certified populations are separate research questions.
No issue-level specification or mintage records are published for this category yet. Verify the exact date, mint, strike, metal, and subtype in its reference before using a numerical standard.
References and review
