Coin commemorating Isaac Earlysman Sparrow's June 23, 1823 balloon flight with Charles Green. Sparrow was an Ironmonger from Bishopsgate, London who had an interest in balloons. He paid Green 50 shillings sterling to accompany him on a flight. Sparrow issued these coins to commemorate his experience. Sparrow's profile is on the front, with 'Isaac Earlysman / Sparrow' around the edge. Plain balloon on the reverse with 'Ironmonger Bishopsgate / London' around the edge. Very similar to A20140457000, but has slight differences.
