Finally was able to get the proper ID on my unknown coin that I had dug the other week.I didnt want to clean it anymore cause I was afraid to damage it.I was quite please to see the date 1811 !!Its my first British merchant token that was intended for use in England that Ive dug.
You can only see the 11 on the bottom I could of tried to clean it more but didnt want to mess it up

I don't think you could have cleaned it any better.

Nice job,

Keep @ it and HH!!
 

In 1811 I took a little trip, down to Frenchy Marcs, and up the .... oh wrong song.

Good ole ship token there!
