Description: | Copper alloyJetton. Hammered token.Obverse description: Possibly a heraldic beast, a clawed paw may be discernible towards one edge.Reverse description: Shield, bearing arms: two quarters to left bear horizontal lines, quarter to lower right appears to bear a lion rampant left; all with a smaller central shield. A circumferential legend is too worn to read. The reverse assigns this to the Low Countries c.1487-1507, and is based on the arms of Burgundy (cf. Barnard 1917, reprinted 1981, plate 23 no. 7); a range of obverse designs is known. Suggested date: Late Medieval to Early Post-Medieval, 1487-1530. Diameter: 27.9mm, Weight: 1.81gms.
