Anne. Brass Guinea token/counter. 1711 #sherborne 1939-43 starA gaming counter in the style of an Anne guinea and more closely modelled on the sixpence or shilling, and very likely produced after Anne's reign. While gaming tokens imitating gold coins are common, those featuring Anne are unusual. This example has faint traces of its original gilding and is in near extremely fine condition. Rare thus. 23mm. 3. 52g
