Give Bed in for Peace a Numismatic Chance
March 25, 2026
Musician John Lennon was more than just a cofounder of legendary 1960s British rock ‘n’ roll group The Beatles. Lennon was also a world-known activist who used music and media platforms to advocate for peace and love during a time of bloody warfare in Vietnam and tumultuous sociopolitical revolutions around the globe. Perhaps one of Lennon’s most famous protests occurred during the week of March 25, 1969, when he and his wife, Yoko Ono, stayed in bed at the Hilton Hotel in Amsterdam to draw international media attention for their nonviolent anti-war message.
