Hello, would anyone be interested in swapping this old copper token ( possibly British? ) - John Corl Boat Buleder ( obvious spelling mistake i think )
1-side engraved copper token about the size of old british halfpenny ( plain reverse)


Unusual token but not what i collect if any body wants it Thanks!.

For a date, it could date from the late 17th to the early 20th century... if we use the widest possible timeframe. Give us an exact measurement of diameter, is it consistent with the post 1860 British halfpenny? Or a pre-1860 copper type's diameter? That can point to date if you consider the token might have been engraved on an actual worn halfpenny.

​Hi, Cass,
27 mm, exact same size and thickness as a 1773 half penny I have, another thought was the text ( buleder) old English as our language has changed over the years, or most people where illiterate back then, the average man would spell words as they sound, Shakespeare's text is hard to understand in modern day English as an example ( just a thought).... Thanks for your interest.
