Description: | Cast copper-alloy probable token. One side is decorated with an eight spoked wheel design whilst the other side is difficult to decipher due to overall wear & corrosion The item, especially the wheel design, bears some resemblance to the ubiquitious lead tokens but these are usually one-sided and are of an alloy that is predominantly lead. no good parallels were found for this item and it has been dated broadly to the later Medieval to early post Medieval based on stylistic grounds.
The item has a diameter of 21.12mm, is 2.33mm thick and weighs 4.71g. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Burrill, Charlotte - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
