Description: | A complete and corroded cast copper alloy uniface hexagonal coin weight. The weight, with bevelled edges, was possibly for an half angel (60 grains) that was issued AD 1464-1470. However, this coin weight weighs 55.8 grains and the difference may be accounted for by the loss of material due to corrosion.The weight is in poor condition and is corroded on both faces.See Withers and Withers 1995, 21 and 68.
