Lovely pieces. Keep 'em coming.

The first piece is a Bath halfpenny 1794.

William Gye was a bookseller, printer and stationer at 13 Market Place, Bath. He regularly visited the debtors in Ilchester prison. It was the custom at that time to imprison people for small debts, often removing completely any chance of repaying the debt. This meant some debtors could be there for life. Gye collected donations from customers to repay some of these debts and thereby free the persons involved.

The obverse is described as Benevolence directing her messenger to "go forth" with a key to open a prison. A basket hangs by the window, referring to the custom where baskets were hung on walls outside a prison appealing to charity for prisoners from passers-by.

The reverse is the arms of the City of Bath. The bottom part of the shield is a wall representing the city wall. Above the wall are the waters of the mineral springs for which Bath is famous, and the river Avon. Central is the sword of St Paul, one of the abbey patrons. The supporters ( animals ) of the arms are standing on acorns, which refer to Bladud, or Blaiddyd, legendary king who supposedly founded the city of Bath. The story is he went to Athens to study, but caught leprosy. On returning to what is now England he worked as a swineherd. His pigs found muddy springs which healed Bladud of leprosy, so he founded Bath where this all happened. His son was Leir, the King Lear of Shakespeare.

8cwt of these tokens were struck, making a mintage I estimate at 40,000. Diesinker Wyon. Manufacturer Lutwyche. Listed by Bell as "scarce". Slight variants, a mule and counterfeits exist.

Re the second piece - does it have an edge inscription?
