During the 17th century, official money made under the king’s licence was often very scarce and to counteract this some individuals, merchants and borough corporations often issued their own coinage – tokens. These had the issuer’s name or his crest or motto and a statement of what he was – eg, merchant, distiller etc. These pieces were issued between 1650 and 1680 and passed locally as small change.
