Description: Tesserae (singular: tessera) are ancient tokens. Most were made from lead, but other materials including bronze, bone, , clay, glass and wood were also used. They were used as tickets for theaters, gladiator fights, ferry passage and even brothels. Tesserae liberalitatis were distributed as gifts by the Roman emperor or local government, often to the poor, and used as vouchers to exchange for grain, oil, or other goods. Some ancient lead "tokens" may have been used as small change coinage.Dimensions in picture JERUSALEM FIND, FROM A UK COLLECITON ANTI-4-11 ALL SHIPPING COMBINED!
