Description: | A shield-shaped lead alloy weight. The lower surface is flat and undecorated; the upper surface has a groove that follows the edge of the shield, within which is a raised oblong with rounded corners. There is no other discernible decoration, but the weight is quite worn. It is 41.8mm long, 26.1mm wide, and 17.3mm thick. It weighs 103.74gm or 3.66oz which was probably a 4oz weight in the averdepois system, suggesting that the weight dates from the 14th century onwards (Biggs and Withers 2000). | Subjects: | shield shaped | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Cooper, Amy - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
