Did the Emancipation Proclamation free any slaves?

January 25, 2021 | 0 | by Austin Coins
Did the Emancipation Proclamation free any slaves?

Are you curious? Did the Emancipation Proclamation free any slaves? The correct answer would be that it “did not free all slaves in the United States. Rather, it declared free only those slaves living in states not under Union control.”

This beauty was struck nearly 150 years ago, but looks like it was struck only yesterday! The 1871 Bronze Emancipation Proclamation Medal made because of this monumental occasion is simply stunning. Unbelievable, that the US mint made it to commemorate Lincoln.

An Emancipation Proclamation medal rarely seen for sale!

This medal is a great buy with a quality second to none and the overall coloration very attractive. This is the Only Emancipation Proclamation medal available at Austin Rare Coins and very few of these even exist. We have never even seen one, particularly in such a high grade.

Superb value for the money, and only one available. Call to find out more about this US Rare Coin gem, because our Austin Coin Dealer are there to help unlike other Coin Dealers.
