Description: | An complete Medieval to Post Medieval unifaced cast lead sub-circular token of Powell Type 7, grid or cross hatch pattern with a few pellets. The token is decorated on one face with a grid design; the other face is undecorated. The token measures 18.6 mm in diameter and 2.6 mm thick and weighs 5.5 grams. Lead tokens were easy to produce and widely circulated; they appear in the Medieval period and ones with simple decoration continued in use throughout both the Medieval and Post Medieval period. Therefore, a general date of c. 1250-1800 AD is suggested for this token.
