Edge hammered round a little.
M Dickinson 387A.
This one of two only known specimens.
A wuzzing stone was used in the weaving trade. There is a surviving example at Heptonstall in West Yorkshire. Research by John Rose.
Though this interpretation has been questioned as, I have been informed that the stone device on the token, is actually one used in the grain milling process.
