    Description

    This is a great piece of history! Great propaganda--obverse shows fat Englishman eating a full table of food--tongue in cheek, English slavery.  Reverse: Starving Frenchman gnawing on a bone, frog legs on a plate at his feet. French liberty equated to starvation.  Great symbolism.A neat and rare obverse and reverse.  This imagery used during the French Revolution.
