Hi Ferret,

This is Farthing Token from Exon in Exeter. It reads on the one side, "1666 IN EXON / C.I.A." and on the other side "JOHN COLLIBEER with Weavers Arms in centre".

Nice find!

Regards,
Jon

Hi Metalmickey, I did not read or see your link at all when I posted this reply today, so don't stress, and I actually go that info from another site, not Fitzwilliam, the pictures were from Google through picture search!! Cheers, Jon
