Description: | A post-medieval, uniface, cast lead alloy token, probably dating from 1600-1700AD. This is likely to have been an agricultural token as one side bears a device that represents the four sails of a windmill radiating outwards from a central dot. There is a small hole in the token that may be a casting flaw. It is 17.6mm in diameter and 1.7mm thick. It weighs 2.21gm. Similar tokens are illustrated in Fletcher, Leaden Tokens and Tallies, Roman to Victorian, Greenlight Publishing, page 76.
