Martha Washington First Spouse Gold Coin
The Martha Washington First Spouse $10 Gold Coin is the inaugural release in the First Spouse Gold Coin Program from the United States Mint. Each 1/2 oz. coin has a nominal face value of $10 and is made of 24 karat .9999 fine gold. The coins were strictly limited to quanities of 20,000 uncirculated coins and 20,000 proof coin versions.
The wife of our First President, George Washington, Martha Washington served as First Lady from the years of 1789–1797 and was primarily referred to as "Lady Washington". Born Martha Dandridge on June 2, 1731, Martha became married to George Washington in 1759 and remained by his side for nearly 40 years.
The obverse of the Martha Washington First Spouse Coin which was designed by U.S. Mint medallic sculptor Joseph Menna, displays an obverse design featuring a likeness of Martha along with the words "In God We Trust" and "2007" - the year of the coin's mintage. The "W" mintmark is also displayed on the coin, referring to it's origin of production at the West Point Mint.
The reverse design by Susan Gamble features the First Lady mending her husband’s military uniform. It also displays the title of "First Lady Of The Continental Army" referring to her selfless contributions made through the Revolutionary War. In 1797 the George and Martha Washington left public life and returned home to their property at Mount Vernon, while living out their days surrounded by friends, family and many well-wishers who merely wished for a chance to express their gratitude to the beloved First Couple for their many years of public service and sacrifice.
