Description

The 2008 (W) Jackson's Liberty First Spouse Ten Dollar Gold represents a West Point Mint issue from the First Spouse Gold 2007 to Date series. With a mintage of 4,609, this is a rare issue — the highest mintage among 4 variants, accounting for 27% 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. Andrew Jackson's wife Rachel died weeks after the 1828 election; the obverse features a Capped Bust Liberty from his era. A modern issue from an era of rotating coin designs, collector-focused programs, and renewed interest in numismatic artistry. The West Point Mint, once a bullion depository, became a full production facility specializing in commemorative and bullion coinage. Estimated market value is approximately $9.2K. Struck in 99.99% gold, weighing 15.55 grams, 26.5 mm in diameter, with a reeded edge. Cataloged as PCGS #395700.
