Description: | A complete cast lead alloy token, dating to the 16th/ 17th century AD (diameter: 25.9m; thickness: 2.7mm; weight: 11.27g). The artefact is only decorated on one side with a monogram reading ?T? and ?W? or ?M? surrounded by slightly ridged and curved lines. There is also a raised border around the outer edge of the token. The artefact is in a slightly worn but fair condition. A similar example is illustrated in Mitchiner & Skinner?s ?English Tokens, c. 1425 to 1672?, in The British Numismatic Journal Volume 54, 1984, page 153 & Plate 12, ref no 29, which also has these monograms on one side and is dated to the Elizabethan period. | Format: | text/html | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ | Publisher: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Rights holder: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Subjects: | archaeology | Temporal: | 1500
