Description: | A lead token, 26.6mm in diameter, 3.1mm thick and 15.2 gramms in weight. There are designs on both sides of the token, although both are almost illegible and it is not clear if it was cast of hammered. The obverse is marked with an impressed shield which has one line running vertically down it's centre in relief and two crossing it horizontally in relief; the shield is surrounded by more lines but it is not clear what they represent. The reverse has a series of crossed lines in relief making a portcullis or chequerboard design. The lead has gone a light grey colour. Due to a lack of excavated examples these tokens can only be loosely dated from between circa 1350 ?? 1800 AD. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | WALKER, Liz - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
