The Suffragette penny is the name given to surviving examples of pre-decimal British pennies that were defaced by British suffragettes. They were a more subtle form of protest than window breaking and arson. There are currently only 10 or 11 pennies known to exist and all are believed to date from 1913.[1][2]
