A complete Medieval to Post Medieval cast lead alloy unifaced token, 1450-1750. The token has been cast from lead alloy in quite a worn or damaged mould; the uneven surface is also the result of damage sustained post-casting. The raised decoration on the obverse consists of a large central pellet surrounded by ten pellets arranged in a circle, inset slightly from the edge of the token.

A complete Medieval unifaced lead alloy token (1500-1700 AD). The token has been cast with a raised design of an ‘A’ on the obverse and a plain surface on the reverse. The reverse surface has a shallow recessed line running the length of the token radius. It is not possible to assign a more specific date to the token, as such tokens were used widely during the Post Medieval period, and this example lacks any specific diagnostic features.
