One of the greater figures in the American and French Revolutions. He disobeyed the orders of King Louis XVI and secretly made his way to the British colonies of America to help fight the War of Independence against Great Britain. He was wounded in the war and was instrumental in getting France to ally with America, and for procuring massive aid from France that helped win the war. The financial effects of this aid was also a primary factor in the disaffection that led to the French Revolution. This set was part of a wider series of LaFayette commemoratives struck in silver, gold, palladium and platinum.
