Description: | A complete cast lead token, dating to the 15th/ 16th century, between AD 1600 ?? 1700 (diameter: 25.5mm; thickness: 2mm; weight: 6.42g). The token is circular in plan and flat in section. On side of the artefact, there is a cross depicted with a single pellet in each quarter. On the opposing side, there is a six-pointed star with a single pellet in between each raised arm of the star. Overall, the artefact is in a worn but fair condition. Similar examples are illustrated in Mitchiner, M & Skinner, A, 1985, ??English Tokens c. 1425 to 1672??, pages 152 - 156; plates 11 - 15. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Johnson, Caroline - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
