Description
Hi there, I have this oval tortoiseshell snuff box with silver edging.
It has a King Charles I, 12 shilling coin Falconers first issue 1637-1642.
The reverse of the coin can be seen upon opening the lid.
There appears to be no maker marks but there are the initials 'A' and 'J'
inscribed in two silver hearts at either side of the top of the box.
There are two images inscribed on silver above and below the coin, I have no idea what these are.
Anything you can tell me would be awesome :)
