This GOLD 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 very limited edition coin, with only 1000 issued by the Royal Mint.
