Description: | Lead alloy disc probably a Post Medieval biface token. The object initially has the appearance of two discs that are slightly misaligned pressed together. This would be typical of a bag or cloth seal; however, there is no evidence of the two discs being separate or pierced diametrically and their double disc appearance is more probably the result of having been cast with the two halves of the mould out of register. One side has the initials HI or IH and the other an I. As a leaden token it is Powell type 2 and would date to circa 1550-1850 AD. Dimensions; diameter 17.0mm, thickness 3.0mm, weight 3.88g.
