2003 Silver Proof 50p – Suffragette

This SILVER Proof edition 50p represents the 100th Anniversary of the foundation of the Women’s Social and Political Union, a seminal movement initiated by Emmeline Pankhurst that campaigned passionately for equal voting rights for women.

The reverse design features the WSPU standard, the railings to which women chained themselves and the ballot paper.

Encapsulated and housed in the original Royal Mint box with the Certificate of Authenticity, this is a limited edition coin from the Royal Mint.
