The AWESOME quote on the reverse was a ridiculously radical idea at the time, and was ridiculed immensely. The Massachusetts colony banished Williams for his views on religious freedom, and he is often credited among the very first abolitionists, as the idea and practice of slavery was as abhorrent to him then as it is now. These ideals that he spoke of would catch on, and help give birth to a Nation of freedom seekers. Roger Williams was a true pioneer of the spirit and a humanitarian that would go on to open the eyes of an entire population.[ATTACH=full]790280[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]790281[/ATTACH]This medal is Bronze, from the Medallic Art Company, and weighs in at 50 grams.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
