Medieval Lead alloy token? 35mm in diameter, 2mm thick with a weight of 13.2 grams. The object is a circular lead disc with complex moulded decoration on one surface and completely plain on the other. The outer edge of the decorated surface has a border of possible writing although some looks more like geometric patterning. The main motif resmbles a fluer-de-lys with staffs protruding outwards at 45o. It has been pierced- seemingly randomly as it removed some of the design.
