Description

This uncirculated and cased Solid Bronze Coin commemorates the 150th anniversary of the abolition of slavery and the death of the anti-slavery campaigner William Wilberforce

The reverse shows his home, Wilberforce House in Hull (now a museum), and the obverse a portrait of the man himself.

The coin is 3.5cm in diameter, has a blue card support and a plastic casing.

There are only a few of these in circulation as they are not legal tender in the UK. A must have coin for any coin collector or historian of the British Empire and Anti-Slave trade movement
