Description: | Complete cast lead token of probable late Medieval to early Post-Medieval date. The obverse shows the initials R ?I with pellets surrounding whilst the reverse carries a concentric circle design of 3 rings with central pellet and 4 radiating linears.
The exact use and date of such tokens, which are a frequent find, is unclear. It is likely that they were used as a form of pseudo-money, tokens, tickets or perhaps even as gaming pieces.
