A very worn and illegible copper alloy jetton probably from the post medieval period. It is deliberately pierced and has a shield on one side. The shield is rectangular in shape and at both top and bottom there is an extra line then an arched line above and below these.There appears to be a rampant lion within. (Possibly Scandic). The reverse appears to have large lettering in the central field but all illegible.
