Title: token?
Post by: handyman [Alan} on August 14, 2010, 11:55:37 AM
an interesting token came out yesterday -- not in good condition, hence the poor quality photos. however the date could be 1762, 1782, 1792   but the designs are unique.

any idea?

cheers

Interesting find Alan. It's an Edinburgh halfpenny token and the date is 1792. Here's a better one:
