New Commemorative First Spouse Gold Coins
If you are a collector of coins, you will be pleased to know that 24 karat first spouse gold coins are now being released. This program is scheduled to run through 2016. So far, only nine spouses have been released to the public.
This can be a reasonable method for investing into gold values today. The prices of these coins directly correlate with the price of gold. The price of gold has been rising steadily recently too. The number of these coins purchased has also gone down due to the price of gold being so high. This can give collectors an advantage in the future when the world discovers there is a very small supply of these specially released coins. It is even possible to profit from the unpopular coins, because they too are increasing in value.
These coins are also interesting in a historical sense. Each coin depicts the first lady in a way that presents her influence in the white house during her time there. For the presidents that did not have a spouse when in office, an image that portrays Liberty from coins printed in the President's era are displayed in their place. These can be very interesting and meaningful to collectors, or to those who receive these as a gift.
These coins are great for collecting because there is a limit of 40, 000 on each one being made. This will give them value in the future when these pieces are harder to come by. They are also made of the highest quality gold. They are a great addition to the printing of the Presidential Dollars already in motion. A good collection can be created by using both types of coins as the center point of a collection.
Not many people are willing to pay such high prices to obtain these coins. Their prices are adjusted to the ongoing gold prices too. The amount of coins being sold are far less than the established limits. This will likely lead to a very limited supply of each one in the future. This can make even the unpopular versions valuable in the future.
If you want to buy the currently released coins, you will be limited to the nine spouses and presidents that have already been printed. You can get coins that commemorate the lives and service of Abigail Adams, Martin Van Buren, Thomas Jefferson, Martha Washington, Dolley Madison, Elizabeth Monroe, Andrew Jackson, and Anna Harrison.
Each one has all the information that describes the nature of the coin's printing on them. You can find the type of gold that is used, the face value of the coin itself, the amount of gold used along with common inscriptions such as "United States of America" and "In God We Trust." The coins also have inscriptions of "Liberty" and "E Pluribus Unum." These additions are focused exclusively on the first spouses. The first spouses are portrayed in a light that shows how important their roles were in forming their husband's presidency.
Many, if not all of the women portrayed, had significant and important roles in producing the success of their husbands. Most of them gave direct support in the office affairs. One, Elizabeth Monroe, is portrayed on the coin commemorating the reopening of the White House after it was burned down by the British. She played a key role in refurbishing the new White House.
