Description: | Possibly a token or coin weight, lead and tin alloy, sub hexagonal in shape and measuring 13x10mm. It weighs 1.13g (17.5gr) and is uniface.
The obverse is cast with a fleur-de-lis in relief filling most of the available space.
It is unclear what this is. There seem to be two possibilities, it is either (a) a late medieval token, perhaps trimmed to its present shape or less likely (b) a crude coin weight for the continental florin (c.50gr.) or its half (c.25gr.) again trimmed down. | 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: | 1400
