Description: | Cast lead circular unifaced token. The obverse of the token has a raised design of three vertical lines possibly from an initial(s). There is a rough;y circular piercing through the token, 5.3mm in diameter, which also pierces the top half of the raised lines. The reverse is blank and is very smooth. It is 20.6mm in diameter, 3.2mm thick and weighs 7.89 grams. Lead tokens had a wide variety of uses and were made locally; they are therefore hard to date precisely and could be Medieval or Post Medieval in date (1250-1850 AD). Pierced examples are known although they are less common.
