Description: | Lead possible Medal. Cast discoid flan with a prominent rim; the surface decoration - if any - is lost. The form may imitate that of the cartwheel penny of 1797-1807, though the thickness of the object varies from 2.4mm to 4.2mm. The reverse is rough and was probably never intended to be viewed. An alternative identification as a harness boss or mount might be entertained, though there is no apparent provision for fixing. Suggested date: Post-Medieval, 1800-1850.Diameter: 37.3mm, Thickness: 4.2mm, Weight: 30.29gms.
