When the U.S. Mint was authorized to produce the First Spouse Series, there was a provision included for those presidents who did not have a spouse while in office. In these cases, the president would be featured along with a depiction of Lady Liberty in order to maintain continuity in the program. In this case, President Martin Van Buren is featured along with a classic Seated Liberty design. Today, certified-perfect 2008 1/2 oz Proof US Mint First Spouse Van Buren’s Liberty Gold Coins are available to you online from JM Bullion.
Coin Highlights:
Martin Van Buren had the honor of being the first U.S. President born in an independent nation. Van Buren’s family owned a tavern on the post road between Albany and New York City. Politicians would often stop at the tavern while traveling, exposing Van Buren to various ideologies and ideas from a young age. Van Buren served as the 8th President from 1837-1841.
All 2008 1/2 oz Proof US Mint First Spouse Van Buren’s Liberty Gold Coins will arrive to you in certified-perfect condition. Each piece has been carefully packaged in a protective slab by the Numismatic Guaranty Corporation. These slabs include a label bearing the official grading details.
The obverse of 2008 1/2 oz Proof US Mint Van Buren’s Liberty Gold Coin features Seated Liberty. This design is drawn directly from the Seated Liberty Dime, which was issued by the Mint from 1837-1891. The design shows Liberty in a seated position as she holds a pole with a Phrygian cap hanging from its end.
On the reverse side of 2008 1/2 oz Proof First Spouse Van Buren’s Liberty Gold Coins, there is a depiction of Martin Van Buren in his youth. In this nostalgic image, we see Van Buren sitting against a tree, reading. In the background, there is a house and a figure on horseback.
