Description

Flint lead Works One Penny Token 1813

Context

According to 'British Copper Tokens 1811-1820' - Withers 1999 "The population of Flint in 1821, was 1,612. It is therefore unlikely that this considerable issue would have been for Flint alone. It is probable that these tokens circulated in neighbouring Chester, Liverpool and Manchester."
