Description: | Uniface token or weight of probable medieval or post medieval date (1350 - 1650). The design on the upper face of the token/weight is comprised of a vertical rib through which four other linear ribs project, in a stick man style. The top of the single rib (head) has a rounded pellet which might represent a head (?). This design is contained within a raised circular border. The reverse of the weight/token is plain and undecorated. It has a large sub-circular depression at the centre with a similar raised ridge border to that on the front. The tokens/ weights diameter is 17.5mm it is 3.8mm thick and weighs 5.77 grams (0.2 ozs or 89 grains). It is possible that this may be a small trade weight based on similar lead tokens. | 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: | 1350
