Description
1664 Essex W.242, Great Clacton, William Munt, Farthing Token, N.1141
A nice example of this scarce 17th century token. Worn but well detailed on a very slightly curved flan. Presented with old ticket.
O: WILLIAM MVNT OF around beaded inner circle, 1664 within.
R: MVCH CLAFTON ESEX around beaded inner circle, M over WM within.
This token is listed in Dickinson as Essex 242 and in Norweb as N.1141. I would grade this token Good Fine (Sheldon VF35). 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.
