Description: | An incomplete cast penny size lead biface token of probable Post-Medieval date. Approximately half of the token survives, the remainder of the object is missing due to old cuts, now worn.It is flat and circular in form with moulded decoration on both faces. One face depicts the remains of a voided long-cross and an inner circle. Outside the circle are a series of random longitudinal lines and pellets. The second face depicts the remains of an outward pointing arrow and two pellets.This token measures 17.80mm in diameter, 1.38g in weight.Similar tokens are noted by Mitchiner and Skinner (1984: plates 16-22) and suggest a date range in the 16th to 18th centuries for the current example.
