Description: | A complete cast lead alloy token, dating to the 16th/ 17th century AD (diameter: 25.9m; thickness: 2.7mm; weight: 11.27g). The artefact is only decorated on one side with a monogram reading ??T?? and ??W?? or ??M?? surrounded by slightly ridged and curved lines. There is also a raised border around the outer edge of the token. The artefact is in a slightly worn but fair condition. A similar example is illustrated in Mitchiner & Skinner??s ??English Tokens, c. 1425 to 1672??, in The British Numismatic Journal Volume 54, 1984, page 153 & Plate 12, ref no 29, which also has these monograms on one side and is dated to the Elizabethan period. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Johnson, Caroline - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
