A silver object reported found at Drayton Bassett, Staffordshire. The object is a piedfort striking of the coin known as denier parisis of Philip IV the Fair, King of France (1285-1314).

Cast unifaced lead token. The token is decorated with a six petalled flower overlaid by c.25 pellets apparently randomly spaced. The token is 26.1mm in diameter, 2.3mm thick and weighs 11.4grams.
Tokens with such simple designs are very easy to make and continued in use for a long period but those with flower designs are generally considered to date from the late medieval or eary post medieval period so a general date of 1400-1650 AD is given.
