This commemorative coin pays tribute to Spain’s significant, yet often underappreciated, role in the American War of Independence.

Spain became a crucial supporter of the revolutionary cause, contributing military, financial, and strategic assistance that proved vital to the ultimate success of American independence.

Under the leadership of figures such as Bernardo de Gálvez, Spanish forces fought against the British in key battles across the Gulf Coast and Mississippi Valley. Beyond the battlefield, Spain also provided critical funding, supplies, and safe ports, which sustained the revolutionary effort during some of its most difficult moments.

Jordi Farragut Mesquida, anglicized as George Farragut, was a Spanish American naval officer, born in Ciutadella de Menorca, then under British occupation. He fought during the American Revolutionary War and with the Continental Army in battles in the South.
