Description:
Scarce `stock' silver jeton of 1663 showing Fidelity seated (obv) and a fruit tree / pastoral scene reverse. Stock jetons were not specifically assigned to any part of the administration in order that they could be used as emergency backups in the event that someone had been overlooked or there wasn't enough `quota' jetons to go round. Some stock jetons are common as muck. Some are exceedingly rare. This type is `uncommon' :)
