Silver 'love token', probably late 17th/early 18th century. At that time, medieval and post medieval hammered silver coins were used as 'amulets' after they have been rendered useless by bending and perforating it. Sometimes the coin can still be identified; this specimen, however, has been rendered unrecognisable.

Cast lead token. Obverse depicts long cross with pellets in each quarter. Reverse shows signs of a cross decoration although badly worn. It is unclear as to why lead tokens were produced although they appear numerous in the 17th and 18th centuries (Bailey 1999 page 56). They may have been produced as a form of working class low denomination currency associated with rural areas (Bailey 2000 pages 13-14). Alternative uses may have been for payment of casual workers or gambling (ibid. page 14). This example appears to be of possible French origin and political in nature (ibid…
