Description: | Post Medieval cast lead alloy circular unifaced token. On one side are the raised initials I C or I G with a line below. The other side is blank. There are two holes near opposite edges which probably ran through from front to back. The token measures 20.8mm in diameter, 2.7mm thick and weighs 5.26 grams. Lead tokens had a wide variety of uses and were made locally; they are therefore hard to date precisely but those with initials are thought to be Post Medieval in date (1500-1850 AD).
