Lead possible token. Cast oval object with one face dished as if stamped, possibly with a motif although no detail is now clearly discernible except a possibly billeted or pelleted edge. The reverse bears five or six finely scratched lines forming a crude star or other radial figure. Patinated. The mass is close to one [slightly overweight] quarter of an averdepois ounce, so a function as a weight might be entertained. Suggested date: Post-Medieval, 1500-1700. Length: 22.9mm, Width: 19.7mm, Thickness: 2.6mm, Weight: 7.60gms
