Description: | A disc-shaped lead weight about the size of a draughtsman, this object is 30mm in diameter and 10mm in thickness. Its lower surface is plain and the 'walls' or upright surfaces are fairly squared. The upper surface is depressed in the centre in a circular centred zone of 16mm diameter defined by two roughly-formed concentric circular grooves, and at the centre of this is a circular stamped motif 6mm in diameter showing two crossed bars (raised) against four quadrant segments (impressed). This has been made by stamping the weight with a circular flat-ended tool with crossed notches in it. On the underside the flat base is slightly recessed towards the centre. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
