Can't remember if I posted this LWC on this thread before, but if so here it is again (found in a CoinStar return):

I have a few much nicer, but this one always sticks out because of where I found it.

What we have here looks like woodgrain at the molecular level, or at least baked into the piece's metallurgical composition.

This is a manorial token, not quite halfpenny size, issued by John Harvey of Dane Court, Tilmanstone, Kent, England, ca. 1720-1750.*

* No one catalogues these things in any detail, apparently, although I have stumbled across this one in a couple of numismatics tomes, like Batty (1877), but it's always strictly descriptive, without attribution. I'm assigning a confidence level of .85 to my attribution, based on my own research into all sorts of relevant primary sources: heraldry references, genealogical databases, land ownership records, etc., and don't forget the initials on the token itself.

Please follow up with a reply if you have further clues, a reference work in which it appears, or the same token...or if you just like the wood look.

Thanks, everybody, and wash your hands!
Tom
