Description: | A cast, lead token possibly converted to a token from a single disc off a cloth seal. The edges are smooth, however, with no obvious sprue where the two discs of a cloth seal may have been joined together. The arms of Stuart are on one side with a mullet or cinqefoil to the right hand side of the shield, all within a circular, beaded and reeded border. On the reverse is a crudely scratched cross similar to other lead tokens reported.These arms were in use from 1603 to 1688 but with a break from 1649 to 1660 for the Interregnum.
