A post-medieval lead alloy circular token with the raised initials TC on one face and HA on the other, both with a partly raised rim. Lead tokens had a wide variety of uses and were made locally. They are difficult to date precisely, although those with initials are generally thought to be post-medieval in date (c.1500-1850). Other examples with this combination of intials on this database appear most commonly to be from Hampshire and the Isle of Wight, for example IOW-BBE9CD, IOW-638C35, HAMP-1D2A58 and HAMP-AC8D96. Most recently, HAMP-253150 which is from the same district ward.

Above the A (and to the left of the head of the crozier) is the letter O. Lead tokens had a wide variety of uses and were made locally. They are difficult to date precisely, although those with initials are generally thought to be post-medieval in date (c.1500-1850).
