A cast lead alloy forgery of an Austrian Maria Theresa thaler. Around the edge of the coin it is possible to see a seam where the 2 halves of the mould used to cast it joined, and the remains of the casting sprue are also visible on the edge above the bust/eagle's crown.
Maria Theresa was Empress from 1740 to her death in 1780, jointly with her husband Franz I from 1745 to 1765, and then with her son Joseph II from 1765 to 1780. The original coin of which this forgery is a copy was probably minted in Burgau, an Austrian possession near Ulm in Bavaria. [germany]

A cast lead (alloy?) token. The front of the token has a raised border, a concentric ridge within, and a face in relief at the centre. In terms of the face, three pellets form the eyes and a nose, and a mouth is formed from two broadly horizontal ridges.

A series of raised ribs join the raised border to the internal concentric ridge towards the edges of the token. The reverse of the disc is plain, although the border is in slight relief. The token ha…

Probably a defaced lead/tin alloy token, 1,0mm thick and 29mm in diameter. It appears to be a lead token although it is rather more broad and thinner than might be expected. The edge is irregular and the surface uneven. One face bears traces of an impressed lattice which is possibly secondary. The other face is featureless except for two angular depressions.
This is a mutilated piece about which little more can be said.

A lead alloy Modern seal dating from about AD 1900 - 1950. The seal is a disc which has a diameter of 13.9mm and is 2.7m thick. It has the same design on both sides which appears to be two squirrels facing each other. This object was originally recorded as a token. There is some damage to one edge of the object which makes the design difficult to see clearly. The object has a yellowish patina and the damage does not seem to be recent.

A lead alloy token which is approximately 2.5cm in diameter. The token is a lead disc with a design on both sides. This find was recorded from a photograph kindly provided by the finder. The design are not very clear but appear to be a bird on one face and letters on the other, maybe ligated AD over an M. The token has been examined by David Powell who suggests that the designs include merchant’s marks and that they, combined with the size suggest a seventeenth century date.

Stamping is much more common on weights and it maybe this was a home made weight for a particular purpose. It weighs considerably more than a gram or grain and may be for a specialist use.
