Hello,

Hoping someone can help, my Father-in-Law has given us a box of seemingly random coins. These two were in a little box on their own so thought they might be 'interesting' We also have a big box full of proof of sale but I don't know what I'm looking for to validate them

Any advice would be greatly appreciated

Many Thanks

Evan

I am pretty sure these are brass gaming tokens of the mid 19th century. Designed to look like the Gold guineas of the late 18th century, they regularly cause confusion!

There are collectors of these, but not at great value. The one on the right is particularly nicely struck on the reverse.
