Description: | A corroded lead token of probable 15th or 16th century AD date.The object is a cast circular disc measuring 16.8mm diameter by 1.7mm thick. One side has raised decoration in the form of a geometric pattern comprised of triangles crossed by straight lines. Given the fact that these tokens often mimic coin designs, this may be a representation of a ship's sail as seen on, for example, gold coinage of the late medieval to early post-medieval period. The reverse has the initials "B. A".The weight of the token is 3.34g.
