Reverse
The reverse of the 2013-W Edith Wilson 1/2 oz Gold Coin depicts a touching scene of the First Lady holding President Wilson’s hand as he leans on a cane, symbolizing the challenging time when he suffered a severe stroke in September 1919, leaving him partially paralyzed and unable to fulfill his presidential duties. Inscriptions on this side read UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, E PLURIBUS UNUM, $10, 1/2 OZ., and .9999 FINE GOLD.
History
Edith Wilson’s level of influence sparked controversy, as some critics saw her actions as overstepping the bounds of the First Lady’s traditional role.
