Description: | Medieval lead trade weight, shield-shaped with cast lion rampant on raised shield-shaped field within recessed border with line of vertical ribs across upper edge and radiating ribs around sides, off-centre perforation through upper edge of field (larger where perforated from reverse), 25 x 37mm, weighing 48.04g, 1.69oz, which is very close to an example from a mid 16th-cent. context in Winchester (49g) which was considered possibly for 2 ounces. Unlikely in this case which is not very abraded. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
