An extremely worn silver Post-Medieval coin, probably intentionally worn blank and therefore illegible, but possibly a sixpence of William III (AD 1694-1702). The coin has been countermarked for use as a 'slap' token (or possibly a love token): one face is stamped or punched with the letter Q followed by two comma-like markings. This stamping has distorted the coin, which dips in this area, and bulges in the corresponding area on the opposite face. Slap tokens were created by tradesmen and shopkeepers from extremely worn shillings and sixpences often f…
