Description: | Late medieval/ early post medieval English lead trade weight. It is plano-convex and uniface with a diameter of 57mm, thickness 8mm and weighing 228.01g (8.04 oz).
It has two impressed stamps, a cronwed Lombardic M in relief and a recessed crescent.
This is almost certainly a weight for a half pound avoirdupois. The date is most probably late 15th to mid-16th century and perhaps bearing the crowned initial of Mary Tudor. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Hinds, Katie - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
