Great find! Well done!
Another one I hadn't heard of before - because its so rare, that's why!
...and those weird NECK buckles - that's another new (old) one for me to wrap my mind around...!
What will they think of next, KNEE buckles?....WAIT! - they already have those too!

What a wonderful find. These 17th century traders tokens are fascinating. They say so much more than a coin ever could. Once again well done.

SC digger, the reference I have also lists the year as 1666:
"Richard Fellows: His farthing dated 1666 carried the image of 'Three sugar loaves' and the inscription 'RICH FELLOWS IN' on one side and 'R S F DORCHESTER 1666 R S F' on the other"
