Description: | A large lead alloy token of probable post-medieval date. The token is bifacial; one face is decorated with a six-petalled flower design with a circle over the centre. Between four of the petals is what appear to be letters; A I R I (possibly). The meaning of significance of these letters is not known but it is unsual to find a token decorated in such a manner. The other side of the token is decorated with three concentric circles reducing in sixe towards the centre, where there is a large pellet. This token probably dates from the 16th or 17th century AD.
