It is decorated on one side with a six petalled flower, (Powell type 1) whilst the other depicts the initials '·T·C·' with a further pellet above (Powell type 2). The token has a very thin body with a light grey-white patina. Lead tokens had a wide variety of uses and were made locally. They are therefore hard to date precisely and examples with simple designs could be Medieval to late Post Medieval in date (c. AD 1250-1800)

Object type: TOKEN
Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: Oxfordshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A worn and slightly corroded lead-alloy token of probable Medieval to Post Medieval date (c. AD 1250-1800). Possibly Powell Type 13 (frameworks) or 30 (pellets). It is decorated on one side with a raised central pellet and a series of lines extending from it; the other side is plain and undecorated. The token has a thin body with a light grey patina. Lead tokens had a wide variety of uses and were made locally. They are therefore hard to date precisely and examples with simple designs could be Medieval to late Post Medieval in date (c. AD 1250-1800).
