Comment
A portion of the Right Excellent Paul Bogle, who in the mid-1800's worked to gain political rights for freed slaves, leading the protest march which ultimately brought about his execution in Morant Bay in 1865.
In 2000 a Brilliant Uncirculated set was issued to commemorate the 40th Anniversary of The Bank of Jamaica.
