King Billy on horseback and 1689 in Roman numerals below.
1791 and the city coat of arms on the reverse.
The edge reads: Payable at the warehouse of Ionathan Garton & Co.
Very nicely struck with all details in high relief.

I'm from Hull, so this is nice to see again. I've come across a few of these before.

Really cool token! I was going to ask about the significance of the three crowns on the rev, but then I decided to google it and found this:
