A Post Medieval copper alloy Token of Anthony Giles.
The obverse has the legend "ANTHONY GILES" with the "N" letters reversed. There is a small design above his name, likely his mark. The reverse has a coronet with a Fleur-de-Lis on the left side. The rest of the coin is too worn to see the details.
