"425951","LON-D69752","PAS4D3D697500131C","BADGE","","","17.73","","16.54","2.51","","1","","","MEDIEVAL","1400","1500","A Medieval lead alloy badge dating to the 15th century.   The badge has been cast in the form of a Lombardic 'S' with decorative pellets in place of serifs.  On the reverse are the remains of the integral pin; the end is broken and missing.  The shape of the badge is slightly distorted.


A similar badge is published in Egan & Pritchard (1991:202 no. 1095) which came from a context dated 1400-1450.  The published example is slightly different in that the entire surface is decorated with pellets.


Dimensions: length: 17.73mm; width: 16.54mm; thickness: 2.51mm; weight: 1.80g.
