Old Welsh coin with a druid

6 comments

1. Wow I didn’t know these existed. For all the shit on Reddit and this sub, once in a while there’s a little gem.

2. Very cool. I’ve not seen these before. Where did you get it?

   I can’t work out what the cypher is. Any idea?

   There’s another with a harp on it [here](https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces4082.html), with “PAYABLE AT ANGLESEY LONDON OR BRISTOL” around the edge.

3. What do the initials on the back represent?

4. Is/was it legal tender? Possibly a token for a mine , didn’t they have company stores? Or may be amusements etc..?

5. I have one of these. My mum dug it up in her garden in Salisbury! It is from Paris Mountain on Anglesey. God knows how it got to Salisbury lol.

6. I’ve got one of them in my collection too, I always keep an eye out for Welsh coins/tokens
