Description: | A complete lead token of post medieval date (AD 1550-1850). The object is sub-circular in plan and severely bent in section. On the obverse of the object is a raised motif in the shape of an anchor. The reverse of the object very worn but could be a raised sexfoil motif with a central pellet.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.Weight: 6.8g.; Thickness: 6.72mm; Diameter: 25.61mm
