Description: | Cast lead uniface token with a stylised fleur de lis on the obverse with a central cross with pellet terminals for the long arms and more pointed, arrow-shaped terminals for the short arms. The short arms are bisected by curved arms that also terminate in round pellets. The reverse of the token is blank.Bailey (2000) illustrates a lead token with a similar pattern on page 11, fig.2, which is dated from the 17th to the 18th century.Egan (2005) illustrates a lead token with a fleur de lis, with pellets above and beside it, on page 170, fig.165, no.920, which is dated from c.1630-1650, which may have been used as the inspiration for this example.
