And the reverse. Clearly not a thing of great beauty, but it is what it says on the label.

[Paulus]

Just for the sake of it, a modern fantasy pattern in copper

 

[Nordle11]

Looks like Will is the one fantasising here  what's he looking at

[Paddy]

This is the best condition 18th century British Copper I have. I hope no one is going to tell me its a forgery!

 

[Paulus]

Love that one Paddy

[Paulus]

Updated pics of this one, love those that give an insight into our social and political history

[Paulus]

This copper farthing token also fascinates me

love that design, especially the obverse(?)

I see this castle still exists today, in Suffolk

[Michael-Roo]

I noticed that too (Google images), though the tall, house-shaped structure, between the towers seems to have gone awol since the 1790s…..

[Michael-Roo]

 

Not bad for a 17th century farthing token. Even shows a little residual lustre.

[Michael-Roo]

Another token. Norwich 1794 this time. Edge plain.

Now, now, Paulus let's not fall out over minor differences when we could just as easily focus on that which we have in common…. 'All hail the plough!!!' 

[Paulus]

Very common 1754 farthing, just photographed and recently acquired ... VF+? Better?
