<p>[QUOTE=&quot;robp, post: 4621811, member: 96746&quot;]Not a coin, but a pub token for the City Arms in Wells, Somerset, which in former times was the city jail (closed 1810 but still complete). Dated to 1869-70, it was issued by Edwin Henry Joseph, landlord from 1869 to May 1870 when he was made bankrupt. 24mm diameter and made of brass.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1144251[/ATTACH]</p><p>Came in a box of junk and has a certain family connection in that my aunt had the pub at one point before it was listed. Small world. This is the pub today. <a href="https://britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/101382996-city-arms-inn-wells#.XwpKfud7laQ" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/101382996-city-arms-inn-wells#.XwpKfud7laQ" rel="nofollow">https://britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/101382996-city-arms-inn-wells#.XwpKfud7laQ</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
