Description: | A cast lead-alloy token of probable late medieval/early post-medieval date. The 'obverse' shows a central shield with a flat top and bowed sides, a type often used on 15th-century jettons. At its centre is a right-and-dot device with three lines radiating from it to the apexes. There is a possible cross in some of the zones thus created. The shield is within a border, with a further border at the circumference. Between these borders is a pseudo legend. The 'reverse' shows a short voided cross with expanding terminals within the inner circle (cf. Saunders ed. 2001, 102; ref. 109). There is an annulet in each quarter. Between the inner and outer borders are alternating crosses and annulets. The token is slightly buckled in profile.
