RARE PLATE WITH NAMED PORTRAIT OF GENERAL ARSENIO MARTINEZ DE CAMPOS 1831-1900. MADE IN ENGLAND BY ADAMS WITH REGISTRATION MARK FOR 1878. Arsenio Martinez Campos ruled Cuba for the Spanish empire prior to the Cuban War of Independence. The war was coming to an end, but an agreement had not yet been reached. Martinez Campos tricked the Cuban revolutionaries into signing the Pact of Zanjon on February 10, 1878, which promised the Cubans many reforms and concessions that the Spanish did not honor. He returned to Spain in 1878 and became prime minister. In good condition with usual minor wear and light crazing. There is an 1/2" surface crack and small hairline on the rear rim only and does not show on the front.
