A hexagonal copper alloy coin weight of Medieval to Post-Medieval date. It is uniface with faceted edges, the obverse depicting the letters I and D separated by a vertical row of three pellets, all within a quatrefoil and inner circle of pellets. The weight measures 14.36mm in height, 15.47mm in width, 1.81mm in thickness, and weighs 2.40g. Withers and Withers (1995: pp. 9) note that hexagonal coin weights are either Anglo-Gallic or French in origin and date to the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries AD. This example should be of similar date and origin, the letters perhaps a maker's mark.

A Post-Medieval copper alloy rose and orb jetton. The jetton is poorly preserved, however, from those sections of the legend that can be read it is probable that this example comes from one of the Hans Schultes Guild Master workshops of the late-sixteenth to seventeenth centuries AD.

A copper alloy French jetton of Medieval date. The jetton is bent at the middle to an angle of approximately ninety degrees, perhaps deliberately or simply as a result of damage in the ground. Parallels for this jetton can be found in a series of French examples highlighted by Mitchiner (1988: pp. 157). These are provisionally attributed to the Queen's household and may have served a role in her almonry during the fourteenth to fifteenth centuries AD. See Mitchiner, 1988: nos. 368-378 and especially no. 376.
