Postmedieval coin of William III (1694 -1702). The coin is a contemporary copy of a sixpence. The core of the coin appears to be non-silver (probably copper alloy), and a silver wash has been applied to the surface. Weight 2.56g. Diameter 20mm. The first two date numerals are visible, '16', so the coin must therefore date between 1694 and 1699.
