Civil Rights Movement-Inspired Proof Coin Collection

From the heroes of the Underground Railroad to the civil rights marchers to today's advocates for voting rights and law enforcement reforms, great Americans throughout history have worked to expand freedom for all, and with each advance, have given more and more Americans the full rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Now you can celebrate the civil rights heroes and significant events that led the way toward greater freedom for all with The Freedom Movements Proof Coin Collection, exclusively from The Bradford Exchange Mint. This collection begins with Issue One, Civil Rights Act.
