Looks like it says nail manufactory but not bristol after as one would expect. Any ideas He also bears the mark of Zorro over the chin but I expect it is less dramatic, a rotated N  Any ideas, does this make it more valuable or less. Not my token but maybe it will be Thanks CCF!  Edited by Moniker

Any idea what coin this was struck over? A condor token perhaps?

There is a word (faint) before the "nail manufactory" and another after it. Can't tell what either is but I don't see Bristol.

The word MANUFACTORY is easily legible on top of the date side; some Numista searching suggests it's probably a halfpenny token from the Bristol Patent Sheathing Nail Manufactory, similar to this (there's a bunch of subtypes). |

It sure does look like a Die Clash. Pretty cool.  Errers and Varietys.

Lovely example that has some character. Thanks for sharing. i let it slip it went for 35$ with fees, I know to little about these and I have bought coins in the past against better judgement  Sad because I really think its a beauty |
