Description: | Copper alloy square coin weight of Post-Medieval date. The weight has transverse file marks on the edges. The upper surface is slightly concave, possibly from manufacture. On the upper surface there is a raised design of a crowned bust facing right set within a dotted border, which is slightly off centre. The letters IR/BRI are either side of the bust. On the lower surface the raised design is again set within a dotted border, slightly off centre. There is a crown surmounting XI S (11s), which is the value of the relevant coin. In the top left hand corner there is a stamped letter I, possibly crowned, although this is unclear, indicating the weight has been counter stamped and bears an official mark. Mid Green Patina. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Puls, Jodi - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
