Looks like someone has been practicing Hall Marks on it. There seems to be something around the edge to suggest it was a coin.
Nice unusual find. Silver is silver whatever. Title: Re: Here`s a tester id please Post by: dingdong on June 21, 2015, 05:24:14 PM Hi buddy,yes Val has made a good observation, it does appear that it is a hallmark, any one out there good on hallmarks ?
Well found,and to quote Val again,"silver is silver!!!"👍👏 Title: Re: Here`s a tester id please Post by: The Doc on June 21, 2015, 08:29:46 PM Probably a William III shilling. They often turn up like this, sometimes in preparation for making into a love token.
