The First Spouse Series from the United States Mint was developed to recognize the women who served as First Lady of the United States. However, the 2012 release of the series was different from the rest. Instead of featuring a First Lady during President Chester A. Arthurs term, the US Mint selected suffragette Alice Paul to represent this era. Now, 2012-W 1/2 oz US Mint First Spouse Alice Paul Gold Coins are available at BGASC.

Highlights:

  • Arrives in a protective plastic slab!
  • 22nd release in the First Spouse Series!
  • Only coin in the series to feature someone other than a First Spouse or Lady Liberty!
  • Limited final mintage of 2,798 coins!
  • Contains 1/2 Troy oz of .9999 pure gold.
  • Issued with a face value of $10 (USD) backed by the US government.
  • Graded Mint State 70 by the Professional Coin Grading Service.
  • Obverse features Alice Paul.
  • Reverse depicts a suffragette carrying an American flag.
  • Produced at the West Point Mint with a W mint mark.

Each 2012-W 1/2 oz US Mint First Spouse Alice Paul Gold Coin is in perfect condition. These MS70 coins exhibit full mint luster and no signs of wear. Alice Paul is the only person in the First Spouse Series who was not a First Lady, with her inclusion based on the fact that she was born during President Arthurs time in office.

Obverse

The obverse of the 2012-W US Mint First Spouse Alice Paul Gold Coin showcases a portrait of Alice Paul. She was instrumental in organizing the National Womans Party and led numerous demonstrations at the White House, known as the Silent Sentinels, to push for voting rights.

Reverse

On the reverse of the 2012-W 1/2 oz First Spouse Alice Paul Gold Coin, a suffragette is depicted marching with a sash that reads VOTES FOR WOMEN. She holds an American flag over her shoulder, symbolizing the movements determination and cause.

History

Born in 1885, Alice Paul was raised in a Quaker family and later became a major figure in the American womens suffrage movement. She introduced new protest strategies influenced by British suffragettes and played a leading role in advocating for womens voting rights.
