    I see the faint line through the G in one of the photos. Might that be a lamination at the foot? I'm not seeing that area clear enough, but I don't see what from the other side would have clashed there to form that area that way.

    The coin from Shrewsberry is a Brittish Conder Token from England. Conder token were Privately issued coins, due to a shortage of coins from the mints.
