One face has a raised simple long cross design with a pellet in each quadrant (Powell type 14) and a raised circumferential border, which tapers off at the edge; the reverse is flat and undecorated.

A complete medieval to post medieval cast lead alloy uniface circular token dating AD 1250-1800. One face has the raised letters IXI surrounded by a raised circular border; the reverse is undecorated. It is difficult to classify the token according to Powell's typology as IXI neither implies it could stand for a person's initials (i.e. Type 2) nor would it be a number in Roman numerals (i.e. Type 8) as IXI would not make numerical sense. Conversely, perhaps it actually reads 'M' or a 'W', in which case it would be Powell Type 2. Lead tokens had a wide variety of uses and were made loc…
