The Presidential One Dollar Coin Act of 2005 authorized the United States Mint to issue a series of coins to celebrate the legacies of American presidents and first ladies. With it, the First Spouse Gold Coin Program was initiated. The 23rd entry in the series, issued in 2012, celebrates Caroline Harrison. The wife of Benjamin Harrison was known for her artistic nature as well as her love for flowers, particularly orchids. Both are evidenced by the reverse of this coin.
