A medieval or post medieval lead token dating to c AD 1400-1700.  This lead token was found with WILT-1AEC06 and may be dated similarly to the fifteenth century.  The token is uniface and is decorated with a linear design with four pellets on short lines perpendicular to the central line and a plain back.  The design may be a truncated anchor.  Powell Type 5.  Cf Fletcher, 2005, p 61.   Lead tokens had a wide variety of uses and were made locally; they are therefore hard to date precisely and could be Medieval or Post Medieval in date.

A medieval lead token dating to c AD 1200-1500.  The token is uniface and is decorated with a linear cross with a pellet in each angle and a plain back.  The decoration is reminiscent of the reverse of a long cross penny.  Powell Type 14.  Cf Fletcher, 2005, pp 40-41.   Lead tokens had a wide variety of uses and were made locally; they are therefore hard to date precisely and could be Medieval or Post Medieval in date. Tokens of Powell's type 14 are thought to imitate Medieval pennies, and may therefore be of the same date.
