Description: | A copper alloy Medieval jetton, probably clipped. It is a Paschal lamb jetton of west-central France. It dates to the 14th ?? 15th century. The legend is just nonsensical markings. This makes it difficult to say whether it was a ??mouton?? type, or the more common Bourges. Also in the late 15th century, paschal lamb jettons were being stuck in a variety of places. It measures 19.5mm diameter x 1.2mm thick, weighing 2.30g. There is no exact parallel to this in Mitchiner, although one example has a triple stranded cross fleury without a tressure ?? similar to this one, although with different marks (Mitchiner, 504). | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Cooper, Amy - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
