Object type: JETTON
Broad period: MEDIEVAL
County: Suffolk
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A copper alloy French jetton of Medieval date. The jetton is bent at the middle to an angle of approximately ninety degrees, perhaps deliberately or simply as a result of damage in the ground. Parallels for this jetton can be found in a series of French examples highlighted by Mitchiner (1988: pp. 157). These are provisionally attributed to the Queen's household and may have served a role in her almonry during the fourteenth to fifteenth centuries AD. See Mitchiner, 1988: nos. 368-378 and especially no. 376.

A Post-Medieval copper alloy rose and orb jetton. The jetton is poorly preserved, however, from those sections of the legend that can be read it is probable that this example comes from one of the Hans Schultes Guild Master workshops of the late-sixteenth to seventeenth centuries AD.

Object type: JETTON
Broad period: MEDIEVAL
County: Suffolk
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A Medieval copper alloy jetton. The obverse decoration finds parallels with Mitchiner No. 196, however, the pellets in the border are replaced in this example with rosettes. Some similarities can be found in Mitchiner Nos. 255-255a for the reverse decoration, but there are no clear parallels. It is possible that this jetton is English and belongs to the late-thirteenth to fourteenth century types of Edward I-III.
