Description: | A Post Medieval to early Modern complete cast lead alloy circular uniface token, dating from c. AD 1550-1850. Powell Type 2. The obverse of the token has the letters TG stamped into it, the reverse is blank. It is 17.79mm in diameter, 1.96mm thick and weighs 4.8 grams. Lead tokens had a wide variety of uses and were made locally, they are therefore hard to date precisely but those with initials are thought to be Post Medieval (1550-1800 AD) in date; this token probably comes from the later part of this date range, due to its style of stamp.
