Description: | Post Medieval copper alloy square coin weight. Both faces have four punched rings. Measuring 14.4mm by 14.25mm, 4.11mm thick and weighs 5.9 grams(quarter of an Ounce). Square weights were banned by an Act of Parliament in 1632 (Bailey 2000, 37) so this weight presumbably dates to before then.
