Post Medieval crude lead alloy bi-face token. Discoidal, with difficult to resolve raised designs on both sides. The primary identifier who appraised the object at the rally suggested that one side may feature a devolved animal or bird design and the other a book. The two halves of the mould were slightly out of register when the object was cast. Circa 1550-1850 AD.
