Above showing both side of the farthing tokens stamped IAMES COSTON and a Cover I heart E, dated 1653.

 

More than likely a Grocer's, location unknown,  although these tokens were also used in public houses.

The Arms shown could just be a Guild Crest and not Arms as is public house, as these tokens were popular for both types of establishments during the mid 17th century, and were used to pay for goods in the premises named.
