Description: | A complete Post Medieval cast lead alloy circular unifaced token. Powell Type 2. On one side is the raised initial B followed by a raised pellet. The other side may also contain an inital but it is illegible. The token measures 17.9mm in diameter, 2.4mm thick and weighs 4.39grams. Lead tokens had a wide variety of uses and were made locally; they are therefore hard to date precisely. Those with intials are thought to be Post Medieval in date, c. 1550-1800 AD.
