<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Conder101, post: 2262732, member: 66&quot;]Can&#039;t tell you much because it is from the era before I collect, but in the mid 1600&#039;s England, Ireland, and Scotland suffered from sever coin shortages and the local communities or private businesses resorted to issuing their own tokens for local use.&nbsp; Limerick is a city I believe in Ireland, and since this coins refers to Butchers in the plural sense and has the arms of the Butchers Guild it may have been a token issued by the guild for use in the butchers shops in the city, or it may be a token issued by a business man named Butcher an using the guild sign as a word play on his name.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
