Born in 1832, Lucretia Rudolph married James Garfield in 1858. A few months after arriving at the White House, she contracted malaria and went to a New Jersey coastal resort to recover. She was there when President Garfield was shot. After his death, she moved back to Ohio. The reverse of this coin depicts Garfield’s interest in art and shows her painting.
