2009 is a unique year for First Spouse Coins since there will be ten coins issued (counting both proof and uncirculated versions for each spouse) instead of the typical eight as in 2007 and 2008.
That’s because John Tyler’s first wife, Letitia, died during his second year in office. Tyler later married his second wife, Julia, while still President. As such, two extra First Spouse Gold Coins will be issued.
