Description: | Silver 'love token', probably late 17th/early 18th century. At that time, medieval and post medieval hammered silver coins were used as 'amulets' after they have been rendered useless by bending and perforating it. Sometimes the coin can still be identified; this specimen, however, has been rendered unrecognisable.
