Post medieval silver shilling of Elizabeth I dating to the period AD 1601 - 1602 (Third coinage). 1 initial mark. Tower mint. See: North, Vol. II, p. 113, 2014. Pierced through the centre. The perforation of a precious metal coin would normally indicate that it should be considered as potential Treasure. However, since coins of this period with similar piercings appear in hoards of currency, it suggests that such objects could re-enter circulation as coins. It therefore cannot be said with confidence whether this particular object was regarded as a coin or as an item of jewellery a…

A uniface cast lead alloy agricultural token of probable post medieval date (c. 1600 - c. 1800). The raised design shows a three sailed mill (Powell type 22) with three triangularly arranged pellets between each sail. The reverse face is blank and flat. Diameter is 21.4 mm, thickness 1.4 mm. Weight 3.1 g. The coin is bent, the axis of the bend is off centre and is probably post-depositional damage rather than deliberate folding. Fletcher (2005) suggests tokens and tallies with motifs related to specific agricultural activities are probably a post-Tudor development. This object w…
