Obverse
The obverse of the 2013-W Proof First Spouse Ida McKinley Gold Coin features a left-profile bust of the First Lady. Ida McKinley was known for her outstanding hosting skills at the White House, yet she was also a private person, facing health challenges like epilepsy. Her condition remained undisclosed during her time as First Lady, and she received dedicated care from her husband and close aides.
Reverse
Turn the coin over, and you’ll find a heartfelt portrayal of two hands using a crochet needle on the reverse side of the 2013-W 1/2 oz Proof US Mint Ida McKinley Gold Coins. Ida’s talent for crocheting slippers during her private moments at the White House became renowned, with the slippers later being auctioned for charitable causes.
History
Ida McKinley supervised a major redecoration of the White House during her husband’s presidency. The interior was refurbished in an elegant and formal style, reflecting her refined tastes. Ida’s social events were well-attended and marked by her graciousness as a hostess. Her efforts in diplomatic socializing contributed to the smooth functioning of her husband’s administration.
