Thats a much better picture. I can see the date on the 17th century token, 166?. Still can't quite narrow it down enough. Can you do a picture of the other side?

You are so lucky to live where there coins of these ages. Only place we could compete with those dates are Florida, and New England States.

I agree, it might take time to sink in. I know he's pleased with it, but I think in 2 years time he will be more pleased

 

[shaun7]

Found out the full details of the 17th century token (brass Farthing):

Joseph Braban Hosyer of Kings Lynn - 1666. The other side has a picture of a stocking.
