Description: | Worn copper-alloy disc, probably an 18th century penny. The coin is too worn to determine any detail however. The item has been bent, and it is likely that it was deliberately bent to be used as a love token, a practice common between the 17th and 19th centuries (Bailey 1992, page 46). | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Brindle, Tom - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
