A complete lead cast token of an unknown date. it is broadly circular in plan with an irregular projection. The upper surface is flat in plan, the reverse side is covered in a mottled corrosion product. The token is 22.8mm in diameter, 3.1mm thick, and weighs 5.74 grams. Undecorated lead discs had a wide variety of uses including as weights, tickets and gaming tokens. They are believed to be locally produced for a local use. The plain nature of these objects makes their intended purpose and dating difficult to ascertain. Similar objects have been found in contexts from the …

A complete possible Medieval to Modern lead alloy bifacial possible token, dating uncertain. It is apparently a cast disc with apparently random largely linear patterns on both faces and a central pellet on one of them . The edge of the token is bevelled.  There is very little or no wear . Dimensons: 21.9mm in diameter; 4mm thick; 11.77g in weight. This find does not seem to conform to any of the Powell (2010) Classification types. See NLM-8BAA08 on the PAS database for a similar deisgn, which states: This may be a modern f…

A copper alloy large circular coin or token. The coin is the right size for a Roman sestertius, with a diameter of 27.6 mm and thickness of 4.1mm. It is not a milled coin and it is quite regular, but both obverse and reverse of the object are worn and indiscernible, preventing dating it with any certainty. However, an irregular square with a cross through it has been scratched and over-scratched onto one face, suggesting re-use as a gaming token, a positive date for which is also very difficult to determine.

A sub-square to disc shaped artefact that resembles a token of Medieval to early Post-Medieval date. It weighs 5.38g, measures 17.4mm x 16.9mm with a maximum thickness of 5.1mm. The object appears to be made mainly from lead or lead-alloy. The edges thicken to one side of the artefact's surface and the area within has a browner hue. Use of a magnet produces a strong reaction to both sides of the object. This confirms that the browner area is a patch of iron. It is uncertain whether the presence of this iron metal is by design, if so the purpose is unclear, or accidentally present. No …

Lead alloy possible token. A probably cast disc with linear patterns and a central boss [of diameter 2mm] on either side. Chipped. Straight and curving, define rectangular and triangular fields which might, with the eye of faith, represent the elevation views of distant buildings. Or runes. This may be a modern forgery made with the intention to deceive, of which scores have been collected in the vicinity. These usually resemble either Iron Age or Early Medieval coins, and were perhaps distributed by metal detectorists over land where access to detect has been contested. A 'mint' in t…
