Description: | Early Medieval lead alloy gaming piece (or weight), 17mm high and 18mm in diameter. The object is in fair condition and weighs 14.09grams. The object has a circular section, is hollow and is domed, (it resembles a thimble). It has no visible markings. It is similar in form and material to others found in large numbers at the 'winter camp' site at Torksey in Lincolnshire. It is thought that they are gaming pieces, but they may also be weights.
