Incomplete medieval lead figurine probably depicting the crucified Christ, the lower part missing. The reverse is flat and the front face almost so. Both arms are raised in a position suggestive of crucifixion rather than of prayer, though the hands, with fingers indicated by fine engraving, are not pierced. The nimbed head is ovoid and the eyes, nose and mouth are engraved in a somewhat rudimentary manner. Further lines on the torso suggest a garment. A small attachment hole is placed centrally just above the break. Height 39.7mm. Width 35.4mm. Thickness 3.7mm. 12th - 13th century.
