Lead possible coin forgery. A droplet of lead which has set on a flat surface and then been stamped with an oval panel on its upper side; the metal retains a grey tint. This may be a further example of ‘coins’ made to resemble Celtic and Anglo-Saxon issues distributed across land frequented by metal detectorists; a ‘mint’ in the Grimsby area is suspected. Suggested date: Modern, 1990-2010 Diameter: 19.8mm, Thickness: 4mm, Weight: 7.31gms

Lead alloy coin. A probably cast flan, perhaps intended to imitate a silver or gold Celtic coin. Numerous modern forgeries of Iron Age and Anglo-Saxon coins distributed in areas of heavy detectorist activity are thought to come from a ‘mint’ in the Grimsby area, and may reflect rivalry between detectorists.

Small lead disc, stamped on both faces using a sceatta, on one face a cross, on the other what may be a bust, probably produced using a series D type 2c, c. AD.675-750. The function of this unusual object is unknown. In the post medieval period, dies of lead stamped in this way using Nuremberg jettons are known and are generally classified as weights. This object may perhaps have had a similar function.

A probable lead alloy forgery based on an inscribed silver unit of the Corieltauvi, possibly imitating ABC 1896 'Vepo ring silver half unit', though the poor definition of the horse in particular is more akin to the discombobulated state of the beast appearing on gold staters; the size, thickness and weight also have more in common with the gold Iron Age coins than the silver. The inscribed silver coinage would bear a date of Haselgrove period 3 phase 8, AD 10-40, but its forgery might rather relate to the period 1990-2010. Obverse description: wreath with extra leaves in a square …
