Unknown coin needs identifying

Recommended Posts

Guest Kim

Hi,

I have a coin in my possession and have know idea what it is or even if it may be worth something. I believe that it may be linked to my family history, could someone please help.

It is dated 1790 and the size of a 1 pence. The following text is on the 'heads' side: GEORGIVS III DEI GRATTA and on the 'Tails' side is N.C.R.ET.CO.DG.L.T.REX.FD.B.I.R.M.1970.

Could some one please let me know what I have or where I could find out.

thanks a million

Kim

It's a brass Victorian gaming token, from the reverse legend it sounds like it was made by NCR and Co. in Birmingham circa 1850's.

Fascinating, but not all that desirable unfortunately.
