Object type: TOKEN
Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: Hampshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A post-medieval lead alloy circular token with the raised initials TC on both facees; the token is now a little bent. A flat area at 12 o'clock on both faces suggests a casting sprue has been trimmed off here. 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).

Record ID: HAMP-24F4C3
Object type: APOTHECARY WEIGHT
Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: Hampshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A copper-alloy apothecaries' weight of post-medieval/ early modern date (c.1600-1900). It is square in form and rectangular in section. On one face is a stamped mark of value for a half drachm (3fs or perhaps 38s); the other face is unmarked. The object measures 11.2mm in length, 10.8mm in width, 2.3mm in thickness, and 1.70g in weight. The weight is a little less than the standard weight for a half drachm (1.94g). It is likely to date to between the 17th and 19th centuries AD (see Withers and Withers, 1995: p. 65; Biggs, 1992: pp. 8-9).
