Description: | A very worn copper-alloy coin weight of medieval or post-medieval date. It is circular and seemingly decorated unifacially. The upper face seems to depict a king with shield standing in a ship. The design and size of this coin weight are consistent with it relating to a noble. Withers & Withers (1995, 18) illustrate these 15th- and 16th-century coin weights. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Webley, Robert - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
