Description: | Cast lead alloy circular uni-faced token. The obverse of the token has a raised line bisecting the face with a pellet in the centre. Around this line is a design, either an irregular geometrical design of diagonal lines and chevrons (type 9) or of a raised quartered design of four regularly spaced lines running from edge to edge and almost meeting in the middle, now worn so the exact point is undiscernable, with diagonal lines in the quarters (type 12). The reverse is blank. It is 21mm in diameter and 9mm thick.Lead tokens had a wide variety of uses and were made locally, they are therefore hard to date precisely and could be Medieval or Post Medieval in date (1250-1850 AD).
