A degraded silver sixpence of Elizabeth I. It is split across the centre, which may have been deliberate
Obverse - the wear on this side is too extensive to be able to discern any details of the portrait. The legend reads ELIZABETH. D.G.AN.FR__________________
Reverse - the arms are present as is the cross fleury. The border may be wire line, in which case it would be a first issue coin dating to AD 1559-60, but this is not certain because of the wear. Neither the date or mint mark are visible for the same reason. Part of the legend reads _______DEV_AD__IVTO____

There is a possibility that this coin has been clipped. It is a distorted circular shape, and part of the edge appears to have been remilled after clipping. The distortion is most apparant on the rear of the coin when comparing the distance of the crowned sheilds from the edge

Post Medieval silver sixpence of William III, probably 1st bust (1696). It has been folded into an S shape in profile. It is likely another coin was bent with it at the same time to form a matching 'token'. Coins folded in this fashion are often called 'love tokens' but they are probably more likely to be tokens of transactions, partculary deals done between illiterate people or those who did not have recourse to pen and paper, a sort of laymans indentured document. Dates to 1696 AD, and the folding is 18th or 19th century.
The diameter is 23mm, and the weight 5.6g.

A worn silver, possible, coin. A flat milled disc, worn entirely smooth on both sides. If a coin, this is perhaps most likely to be a sixpence of King William III (AD 1694-1702), issue of AD 1695-1701, though now worn to a much-reduced weight. On both the obverse and reverse there is a longitudal line down the coin at opposite ends to each other, indicating that the coin was likely to have been bent at these points, forming an 'S' shape; this shape has since been flattened back to a disc. If this is the case, the coin may have been used as a love token.
It measures 19.49mm in di…
