Description: | Trade weight for half an ounce of copper alloy (probably brass). It is 23mm in diameter, 3.5mm thick and weighs 13.34g (0.47oz). It is a stacking weight from a set.Obverse: within a central recess there are three stamps, (1) shield with arms of the city of London, (2) a ewer and (3) a crowned G.Weights bearing the arms of London occur after 1826, so the crowned G must refer to George IV and thus the weight dates to between 1826-1830. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
