William III (of Orange 1694-1702) copper alloy farthing 1695-1700. William of Orange was born on 4th November 1650. He married Mary Stuart under Charles II's foreign policy. William and Mary ruled together from 1688 until her death in 1694 and he continued to rule alone until his own demise in 1702 following a serious fall from his horse. The Bank of England was formed during his reign and there was a great period of re-coinage in 1696 to replace the hammered silver in circulation that was clipped and badly worn.

Object type: FLAT AXEHEAD
Broad period: BRONZE AGE
County: Flintshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Early Bronze Age flat axe head, probably miniature form. The axe is very worn/corroded around the edges. Although generally flat in profile, there is a distinct thickening in the middle of the body of the axe and evidence of a nick and perhaps even negligible evidence of a flange on one side. The butt tapers towards the end to a rounded point. The blade is quite corroded on one edge and bulges out slightly on the other edge making it non-semetrical. The surface is rather pitted with corrosion but some of the original patina remains. This axe measures 79.07mm in length, 29.65mm width…
