Description: | A copper alloy coin or token of probable post medieval date (1600 - 1720). The coin has been struck rather than milled. The obverse depicts a long haired head and shoulders / bust of either a man or woman - the design is undiagnostic but seems more likely to be aa male bust to female one. The head is uncrowned and facing left. The reverse face is indistinct although remnants of a design is present - being formed around a central oval element from which extend further elements - possibly depicting a central shield with crossed spears.Coin measures 24.5mm diameter and is 1.3mmthick; it weighs 2.37 grams | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
