Contemporary copy of a Post Medieval farthing of Charles II dating to the period AD 1672 to 1679, Spink 3394. The coin appears to be in a lead alloy mix but is not a tin farthing as it lacks the neat square plug and also has the date on the reverse under Britannia rather than on the edge like the tin farthings. The raised border on both faces, around the design, irregularity of the letters, incorrect die axis measurement and a possible date of 1676 when farthings were not struck all also suggests it is a copy.

A tin halfpenny of farthing of William and Mary (AD 1688-1694). The coin is too worn to decipher any detail but the central stop or plug indicates a coin of this period. Thanks are extended to Des Collins for correcting the identification of this object from button or agriculturally token / tally to coin. The coin is a roughly flat disc that has suffered some edge damage, as well as appearing to have been burnt.
