Description: | A copper-alloy coin weight for a Scottish Fourpence. Biggs (1995, p. 21) gives a date range of 1650-1800, suggesting that c. 1700 AD is most likely.
The object consists of a circular disc which is stamped on both sides with 'D/IIII' above the stamped mark of a lion, standing left, rampant.
The weight measures 20.2mm in diameter, 2.3mm thick and weighs 5.89g. | Subjects: | Scottish Fourpence | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Watters, Julian - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
