The declaration argued that governments exist by and for the people with citizens obligated to overthrow a tyrannical government.
The 1954 British film "Fire Over Africa" is about glamorous woman secret agent Joanna Dane (Maureen O'Hara) who is assigned to identify the head of a drug smuggling group in the North African city of Tangier, which was at the time an international zone administered by Great Britain, France, and Spain.
Joanna uses her physical charms and skills to get a job at a smuggler's hangout where she can coax information out of men who find her attractive.
At one point she contacts an Arab agent working as a waiter and hands him a coin with a message taped to it. The coin is a Spanish 5 peseta coin dated 1949 and minted under the Franco regime.
Joanna gives the agent a coin which has a piece of paper or tape on it.
The message reads "Farrell Murdered".
There is enough of the coin showing to identify it as a Spanish five peseta coin dated 1949.

Passport to Pimlico coin
Only the coin obverse appears and it matches the obverse of an Edward IV gold rose-noble or ryal.
This coin is an imitation or prop coin. The real coins were minted from 1464 to 1470.
The film is a comedy about the London district of Pimlico and the finding of an old document signed by King Edward IV (1461-1483) giving the area to the French Duchy of Burgundy. The Pimlico residents then believe that they do not have to obey British laws.
