Liverpool Sacramental Tokens

A communion token is a metal token issued to members of Presbyterian churches in order to provide them entrance to the Lord's Supper. There were many types issued in Scotland in the 18th and 19th centuries, but they were largely superseded by communion cards. These particular tokens were issued by St Andrew's Church in Rodney Street , Liverpool , and are dated 1824 , the year the church opened .
