Description: | A cast copper alloy weight dating from the post medieval or modern period with a diameter of 31.3mm and a thickness of 6.1mm. It weighs 27.2 grams or 0.95 ounces, suggesting that this was supposed to have been a one ounce weight. It has a lip running around the outside edge of one face. The rimed face has a central pair of concentric circles. The lipped face is also engraved with the crowned letters ??G R?? suggesting that it dates from the Georgian period (1714 ?? 1830). The opposite side of the weight has a large central dimple. A similar example is LVPL-0F7244 on the database. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Cooper, Amy - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
