This WW1 death plaque penny is a historical artifact from the Royal Irish Rifles during the First World War. The plaque is designed to commemorate the sacrifice of soldiers who lost their lives during the conflict. The penny features the name of the soldier, together with the phrase "He died for freedom and honour".


The plaque is a valuable collectable, perfect for anyone who has an interest in militaria or the history of World War I. The Royal Irish Rifles were one of the most prominent regiments during the war, and this plaque is a testament to their bravery and sacrifice. It would make a great addition to any collection or as a gift for someone interested in military history.
