Description
19th Century Victorian Billy and Charley counterfeit antiquity in lead.
During the middle of the 19th century the London archaeological community was disrupted by a controversy over the authenticity of a large number of supposedly medieval leaden objects that appeared for sale. They eventually proved to be forgeries and have since been called "Billys and Charleys" after their manufacturers.
