Description: | A copper alloy 'ship penny' jetton (reckoning counter) of unclear maker. The legend is very worn but appears fictitious. It depicts four fleur-de-lis in a lozenge on the obverse and a sailing ship on the reverse, it is likely to date to the later 16th century (1550-1600). See Mitchiner (1988) Jettons, Medalets and Tokens, Volume 1, numbers 1480 ?? 1485 for similar examples. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Burnett, Laura - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
