Nighthawk
A Georgian era British sixpence love token engraved ‘Nighthawk’ with engraved foliate details.
The other side depicts the uncrowned head of King William IV and lettering ‘GULIELMUS IIII D:G BRITANNIAR: REX F:D’ which translates as ‘William the Fourth by the Grace of God King of the Britains Defender of the Faith’.
Why we love it
Was the owner of this love token a bird fan or someone who liked staying up late night?
