Description: | A Medieval to Post Medieval cast lead alloy uniface token, dating from c. A 1250-1800. Powell Type 7. One face of the token has been decorated with three vertical and three horizontal intersecting lines, which create a hatching or grid pattern. The token is of a light grey colour.Diameter: 17.28mm. Thickness 1.9mm Weight: 2.8g.Lead tokens had a wide variety of potential uses such as tallies, gaming pieces, tickets, weights, etc. and are believed to have been locally produced; they are therefore difficult to date precisely. Therefore those with simple designs are given a more general Medieval to Post Medieval date.
