Description: | A complete struck/ hammered unfinished or trial lead token, dating to the 17th century, between AD 1600 - 1700 (33.5mm x 23.5mm; thickness: 3.5mm; weight: 15.82g).It should be noted that there is a considerable amount of lead remaining around the outside area where the sides of the token has been struck. Additionally, the diameter of each side of the token differs, which may indicate a trial piece. The diameter of the five-foil side is 23mm, while the diameter of the lion side is only 16mm. The token is in a slightly worn but good condition.Ref: Mitchiner, M & Skinner, A, 1985, 'English Tokens, c. 1425 to 1672', pages 131, 140, 160 & 163; plates 19 & 22; ref nos 161, 162 & 49.
