Description: | A Medieval to Post Medieval cast lead alloy circular unifaced token. Powell Type 19 or 32. The token has a stylized raised design of what appears to be a person standing next a horses or possibly a dog with some unclear raised areas above and below; it also has a raised line below possibly representing the ground. The reverse is plain. The token measures 17.36mm in diameter, 3.30mm thick and weighs 4.6 grams. Lead tokens had a wide variety of uses and were made locally; they are therefore hard to date precisely, although it is likely that this elaborate form is late Medieval - Post Medieval in date, c. 1450-1800 AD.
