Medieval English copper alloy jetton. Obverse: King standing or enthroned under canopy, REX inscribed to right; reverse, quartrefoil surrounded by cross fleury. This type dates to c.1350-1400AD and was produced in both England and France. The legend and the punched dimple in the centre of the obverse suggest this is an English example (Saunders (ed.) 2001 page 218). See Mitchiner (1988) No. 272, page 122 for a similar example.

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.
