Read the claim. Which statement is the strongest counterclaim to the

claim?

Claim. The suffragette-defaced penny is the most

historically significant object because it represents the

true beginnings of women's fight for the vote.

O The campaign for women's suffrage had actually

begun with the Great Reform Act of 1832, long

before the defaced penny was created.

O Many other tactics, such as letter bombings and

hunger strikes, were taking place at the same time

that the defaced penny was being circulated.

O The extremely slow process of redefining the British

political nation began in the 1820s and took many

decades to fully unfold.

O The defaced penny was not created until 1903, so it

could not possibly represent the true beginnings of

women's suffrage
