A worn Post Medieval silver sixpence of William III (AD 1694-1702) dated to 1695-1702. Mint uncertain. Both faces are completely worn and the coin has been bent along one edge.

Worn and pierced silver Post Medieval halfgroat of Charles II. The coin is pierced above the bust on the obverse from which it may have been suspended. However, the Maundy ceremony was introduced in 1662 by Charles II in which, amongst other coins, twopences were issued, hence the coin could also be a pierced Maundy piece. Such 'touch-pieces' were believed to ward off scrofula, a disease also known as the Kings evil. Circa AD1660-1663. Diameter: 21.0mm. Weight: 0.89g.
