Broken brooch and first hammered coin in poor shape unfortunately. Any id unlikely but appreciate all suggestions :-)

I can see a couple of letters, but thats going to be a hard one to ID. Which country are you?

 

[caskey]

Northern Ireland. Probably a love token and defaced purposely. Still trying to get an id on it though.

Ok, then a 1690s Sixpence of Will III is most likely.

Turns out to be a Lizzy sixpence. Cool. Couple better pics. Thanks.

Great. Thanks very much for the info. I had assumed it was to thread it on something but couldn't figure why the centre. Makes sense now. Was through a few hands that one ;-)
