Description: | A Medieval copper-alloy jetton, Obverse shows a crowned bust in a tressure of three arches and three triangles with pellets in the angles around. Reverse shows a treble-stranded cross with fleur-de-lys terminals within a four-lobed frame with an annulet in each angle around the outside. Both sides carry a legend but dues to ?clipping and/or damage to the circumference of the jetton this cannot be fully deciphered. Probably Anglo-Gallic. Cf. Mitchiner 329 (p. 133), attributed to the period of Henry VI (1422-1461).
