A post medieval, lead token AD.1550-1800. The reverse is decorated with a curvilinear design, there are two opposed overlapping arcs bisected by a line passing through the apex of both arcs. This in turn has two curved slight S shapes, one upon either side connected to the top of this line and to the lower arc. The bottom of the bisecting line has a small curved c shape. The token has suffered some damage along one edge obscuring any further decoration below the lower c shape. The obverse has a faint ExP cast on to it.
