Cast biface circular lead token. The token is decorated on one side with a grid pattern. The second side has initials, possibly JW or OW, above a grid. The token is 12.5mm in diameter, 2.6mm thick and weighs 4.56g. Tokens with simple designs were very easy to make, had a range of uses and continued in use for a long period, but those with initials are thought to be Post medieval in date 1500-1850 AD.
