Object type: TOKEN
Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: Kent
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A biface cast copper-alloy token likely of 18th or 19th century date. Description: The token's upper face is decorated with a capital H proceeded by fleur-de-lis all within a raised border cast in relief. Measurements: 27.41mm in diameter, 1.93mm thick and 6.13g in weight. Discussion: Although probably dating from after 1700, this object may relate to the Honeychild Manor which was frequently home to powerful individuals, many of whom were very influential on Romney Marsh. It may, therefore be relevant to the Fifth Continent project on Romney Marsh.
