Description: | A lead token or weight. A lead disc 30.5mm in diameter and 2.5mm thick. Indents in 4 places around the edge, almost equally spaced, suggest that it was tied with wire or twine for some reason. On one face, a capital letter H has been stamped off centre. On teh opposite face a square has been stamped or etched. Discs of this type were often handmade by a local trader, for use as a token or local weight, and so assigning a definate function for these objects is difficult.
