Gloucester City Farthing 1669

Gloucester rather than Dorcester. These tend to be local finds, because people didn't travel that much & they were only exchangable in 1 particular shop. Although some towns/streets had local agreements to take each others tokens.

Good find in my books!

Very nice. I can only dream of making a find that old.

Good luck, I hope it happens some time The one coin I have from the mid 1600's is a toasted common small one nothing even close to how unique the token the OP found.
