Description: | A very worn cast lead uniface token of Medieval to Post-Medieval date. The decorated face has numerous lines radiating from the centre of the token to the outer edges, perhaps representing a devolved cross of some kind. The reverse face is seemingly undecorated, although has suffered from extensive wear whilst in the ground. This example measures 28.18mm in diameter and weighs 8.77g. Tokens with similar types are noted in Mitchiner and Skinner (1984: pl. 1 nos. 38-39, pl. 14 no. 85) as well as on the PAS database (eg. BERK-567491). These suggest a date range in the Medieval to Post-Medieval periods for the current example, perhaps in the 15th-18th centuries AD. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Brown, Andrew | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
