Description: | A worn copper alloy jetton of the 14th century AD. The jetton is hard to parallel although there are several similar in Mitchiner (1988). The jetton appears to depict a male figure on the obverse (possibly the king enthroned) and a single stranded cross fleuretty on the reverse. Of the similar jettons, all have a triple cross fleuretty. The legend is also very hard to read, if it is indeed a proper legend and not nonsensical as is sometimes seen. Althoug a direct comparison could not be found, it is probable that this this an English jetton of the period c. AD 1300-1400.
