Description: | A worn but complete lead alloy uniface token dating from the medieval to early post-medieval period. The token is decorated on one side with a raised design comprising a long cross with one pellet in each quarter and one in the centre. Tokens were made in large quantities over large period of time and many are difficult to date precisely. Those decorated as this example are thought to resemble or even imitiate long cross pennies of the medieval period however they continued to be circulated throughout both the Medieval and Post Medieval periods. A general date of c. AD 1250-1800 is given.
