Description: | Cast lead alloy badge with a lozenge shape upper part and a short vertical stem below. The lozenge is formed of three concentric ridges with an outer border of openwork triangles. In the central lozenge is a domed boss with four smaller pellets around. There is another raised pellet below this between the corners of the inner and central ridge, and another above between the corner points of the central and outer ridge. Two further pellets are on the side points of the outer lozenge. The inner lozenge has a background of raised ridges radiating from the central boss. Diagonal ridges fill the spaces between the outer and central lozenges. The vertical stem is decorated with three vertical ridges with horizontal lines between. The end is folded back on itself. The reverse is flat and there is no apparent pin for attachment. The object may be a pilgrim badge but no parallel was found.
