Description: Boston Tea Party Three-Coin Album & COA 1773 American Revolution East India Co The first tea in the American Colonies, imported from Batavia by the Dutch East India Company, gained instant popularity. By the late 18th century, tea was widely favored in Great Britain and its North American colonies. The Crown's excise tax and exclusive import rights for the British East India Company led to higher prices, prompting the 1760s and 70s Acts of Parliament to support the company. In December 1773, American patriots, disguised as Mohawks, destroyed a shipment of EIC tea in the Boston Tea Party, fueling colonial support for the American Revolution. After the destruction of the tea, many Americans switched to coffee, as a sign of patriotism. This album features coins from the time when the term "Boston Tea Party" was coined in 1834, including a Dutch East Indies half stuyver, a British half penny with George III's bust, and an East India Company ten cash coin.
