Good-looking piece.

Bell only lists one type of this token with a milled edge. Dalton&Hamer list three:

D&H Herefordshire 5 - milled edge
" " 5a - edge legend PAYABLE IN ANGLESEY LONDON OR LIVERPOOL
" " 5b - smooth edge

Which one have you got?

3cwt struck, making about 15,000 tokens.
( for those unfamiliar with this system, 1cwt = "one hundredweight", which is 1/20th of the imperial ton, i.e. 112 pounds ).

Manufacturer William Lutwyche of Birmingham.

Galata lists at 2010 values all variants the same -
VF £40
EF £150
