Description: | Small cast cu-alloy stamp, probably dating from the late medieval or post-medieval period, ie. c. AD1500-1800. The body of the stamp is solid cast and of roughly tubular shape with an octagonal cross-section (probably for better grip). Both ends are oval/circular and display one moulded letter: a capital 'W' on one side and a capital 'E' on the other. The lettering is typical of that of some late medieval or post-medieval tokens or stamped lead items. A post-medieval date, however, seems more likely.
