Some of the most distinctive releases in the US Mints First Spouse Series feature First Lady Frances Cleveland. While two presidents in US history had multiple First Ladies honored in the series, Grover Cleveland is the only one with two different coins dedicated to the same person. This is because he served two non-consecutive terms, making Frances Cleveland the only First Lady to appear twice with unique designs. Provident Metals now offers the 2012-W US Mint First Spouse Frances Cleveland 1st Term 1/2 oz Gold Coin.
