Description: | Fragment of lead alloy with partial, inked or painted inscription. The fragment is flat and subrectangular and clearly broken along three edges. The inscription reads L [ ] over AURATUM, suggesting that it is referring to something gold or with a gold element. It is possibly a tag to some form of goods. The letter forms are not Roman and the use of ink or paint, which is fairly fresh looking, suggests it is post medieval to modern in date.The lead is creamy white in colour. The object is 38.54mm long, 22.78mm wide, 1.96mm thick and weighs 2g.
