Description: | Cast lead-alloy token, probably dating from the post-medieval or early modern period, i.e. c. AD1500-1800. The token is complete. It is circular in shape with moulded decoration on the obverse and reverse. The obverse is decorated with a flower or star(?)-shaped pattern whilst there is a moulded cross potent on the reverse. These lead-alloy tokens are normally home-made and frequent finds in fields (pasture and ploughed land). They are usually found out of context, and most of them have no inscription or other lettering on which makes dating them very difficult. Generally, they are given a broad post-medieval/early modern date.
