Own a distinctive piece of American history with the 2007 Jefferson's Liberty First Spouse Gold Coin. Issued by the U.S. Mint as part of the First Spouse Gold Coin Program, this Proof coin contains 1/2 troy ounce of .9999 fine gold and comes complete with its original U.S. Mint presentation box and Certificate of Authenticity.
Thomas Jefferson was a widower when he became president, so his First Spouse release features a historic image of Liberty rather than a First Lady portrait. The obverse depicts Liberty as she appeared on the Draped Bust Half Cent issued during Jefferson's presidency, connecting this modern gold coin with early American coinage from his era.
The reverse features Monticello, Jefferson's Virginia home, along with his monument inscription recognizing his authorship of the Declaration of Independence and the Virginia Statute for Religious Freedom, as well as his role in founding the University of Virginia. Struck at the West Point Mint, the Proof finish features mirrored fields and frosted design elements that beautifully showcase the historic artwork.
Containing 1/2 troy ounce of .9999 fine gold and presented with its original Mint packaging and COA, the 2007 Jefferson's Liberty Proof offers an appealing combination of precious metal content, early American imagery, presidential history, and numismatic collectibility.
