The Committee reviewed proposed reverse designs for the 2013 First Spouse Gold Coin and Medal Program honoring Edith Wilson. Reverse design EdW-R-05 garnered 26 of a possible 27 points and, therefore, is submitted with a strong recommendation by the Committee. The design provides an illustration of Edith Wilson’s hand on President Wilson’s hand, which grips a cane. The design symbolically conveys Mrs. Wilson’s important and compassionate role in assisting President Wilson in the execution of his duties following his stroke. Committee members remarked that the design provides a good balance of design elements and negative space and will produce a very attractive coin. Sincerely, Gary B.
