A complete cast copper alloy harness pendant of medieval date. The pendant is square with no discernable decoration surviving the corrosion of time. From the centre of the top edge projects an oval transverse suspension loop with a central circular piercing. The centre of this piercing has been sealed closed most likely by rusting of the iron pin from which the pendant was suspended. The main square of the pendant has been bent in numerous places, perhaps by plough. It likely dates from the 13th to the 14th century

Object type: TOKEN
Broad period: MEDIEVAL
County: Central Bedfordshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A Medieval or Post Medieval cast lead alloy circular uniface token. Powell Type 30. The token is decorated on one side with five pellets arranged with four forming corners of a square with the fifth pellet roughly in the centre. The reverse surface is flat and undecorated. Lead and its alloys are very easy to work and tokens were often locally produced; therefore they are difficult to date and tokens with simple designs had considerable longevity. There are dated generally from c. 1250-1800 AD.
