Description
1664 Cambridgeshire W.209, Cambridge, John Moyes, Farthing Token, N.496
A scarce 17th century token which is superior to the Norweb example. Worn and with a slightly ragged edge but otherwise well detailed.
O: IOHN MOYES 1664 around shield containing Grocers’ Arms.
R: IN WISBECH around cable inner circle, M over IE within.
This token is listed in Dickinson as Cambridgeshire 209 and in Norweb as N.496. I would grade this token Good Fine (Sheldon EF40 details). I have provided high-resolution close up photos so you can decide on a grade for yourself.
For uncertified coins I provide a grading opinion using both the UK descriptive system and the Sheldon scale (based on ANA Grading Standards and/or PCGS Photograde) which will be better known to my US customers. I offer a grading opinion as a courtesy, but please examine the high resolution close up photos carefully and decide on a grade for yourself.
