Record ID: SUSS-77E132
Object type: TOKEN
Broad period: MEDIEVAL
County: East Sussex
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A Medieval or Post Medieval uni-face cast lead alloy token. Powell Type 9. The token is discoidal and has a raised geometric lined grid design with pellets in the interstices on one face. Lead tokens had a wide variety of uses and were easy to manufacture; they are therefore difficult to date precisely outside of secure archaeological contexts. Those with simplistic designs seem to have been circulated for a long period of time and are given a date of c. 1250-1800 AD for this reason. Measurements: Diameter: 17.15mm, thickness: 2.2mm and weight:3.7g.

Object type: CHISEL
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: East Sussex
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A small cast copper-alloy chisel of uncertain date, possibly Roman-Medieval. The chisel is roughly triangular in plan, ranging from sub-triangular to sub-rectangular in cross-section. The narrow end is flat and sub-rectangular and the wider blade-end is flat and sub-triangular. It has an even dark green patina in keeping with objects of this date in Sussex. However, due to insufficient diagnostic features, it is difficult to suggest a specific date for this object. The chisel measures 37.2 mm long, 7.15 mm wide, 4.9 mm thick and weighs 6.6 grams.

Object type: BUCKLE
Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: East Sussex
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Late Post Medieval rectangular double looped cast copper alloy buckle with drilled frame for a separate iron spindle. The spindle is now missing along with the pin/chape. The frame is plain with a distinct arch in profile suggesting it is from a shoe, knee or hat. The centre of the long sides are expanded downwards into an oval at the centre and drilled through the expansion for the spindle. It measures 40.3mm long by 33.2mm wide and 2.6mm thick. It weighs 6.23 grams. Parallels for this type of buckle can be seen in Whitehead, (2003) p104/105 which he dates from AD 1720 to 1790s.

Object type: BUCKLE
Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: East Sussex
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A cast copper alloy double looped sub-annular buckle, with recessed narrowed strap bar. Some of the buckle plate remains but the pin is missing. The plate is formed from a bent plate, which loops around the strap bar. The bend has been recessed to allow the missing pin to sit there. The end of the plate is damaged with evidence of a broken rivet hole. The frame is uninterrupted; so therefore has no pin recess. The metal and buckle plate metal are a greenish-brown colour. The buckle measures 27mm long, 21.4mm wide, 1.8mm thick and weighs 3.53 grams.The plate measures 20.2mm long …

Object type: JETTON
Broad period: MEDIEVAL
County: Hampshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A worn and slightly corroded Medieval copper-alloy English jetton of 'Sterling Bust' type. The obverse has a forward facing bust with bifoliate crown within an inner circle, whilst the reverse has a long cross fourchee with three pellets in each quarter. It isn't possible to discern a central pellet on the obverse as is frequently common, however a small recessed circle is visible at the centre of the reverse. This form of jetton closely imitates Edwardian silver pennies, but with nonsensical legends comprised of pellets, annulets and figures imitating letters. Similar jettons are i…

A very worn and heavily clipped Medieval silver penny of Edward I, minted at London dating to c. AD 1292-1307. This coin has suffered extensive wear on the obverse and reverse which has made the legends largely illegible alongside the extensive clipping. However a single closed 'E' is visible suggesting this coin is of classes 6-15, though the lack of additional letters and bust render further classification difficult.
