Modern Coin MartClaudia "Lady Bird" Johnson is next in the First Spouse Gold Series!
Popularly known as "Lady Bird" Johnson, this First Spouse was successful for more than just being the First Spouse to President Lyndon B. Johnson. As a well-educated, shrewd investor and manager, Johnson paved her own path aside from her husband's election as President of the United States. Lady Bird Johnson was the first of all the First Ladies to deal directly with Congress and even had her very own Press Secretary.
Claudia Johnson received the nickname of "Lady Bird" from her father as a young child, but it quickly caught on and followed her throughout her life. Lady Bird and President Johnson had two daughters, and all four of them shared the same initials, LBJ. Lady Bird was responsible for founding the Beautification Project during her time in the White House, in which she profusely planted flowers. She believed that as the flowers bloomed, so would hope.
Each Lady Bird Johnson First Spouse Gold coin is 1/2 Troy oz. of .9999 fine gold that has been minted at the West Point Mint. This makes these coins one of the purest gold coins struck in the United States, aside from the traditional Gold Buffalos.
