    I'm just a newbie with these, I owe what little I know to Farthing and Conder101.

    Kent 20, nice token. Yours is a little better than mine and a little better struck than most. Mintage of 20,600. Considered to be common, there are sales of 19 different pieces appearing in Dr Sriro's database.

    A genuine trade token intended by the merchant to circulate as money. Dies engraved by either Roger Dixon or Arnold of Birmingham (Dalton & Hamer and Arthur Waters are in disagreement on who the engraver was.) and struck by William Lutwyche for John Crowe, a Brazier (not coppersmith, the edge die was in error) in the town of Faversham in county Kent.

    Nice- the ship reminds me of the one on the medieval gold coins.

    Collector since 1976. On the CU forums here since 2001.
