Description: | A complete and worn circular uniface coin weight for an angel of Late Medieval or Early Post-Medieval date (AD 1464 - AD 1604 (Withers and Withers 1995, 21 and 68). The weight for an angel during this period was 80.0 grains. This Isle of Wight find weighs 73.7 grains (4.76g). The difference in weight can probably be accounted for by the loss of metal due to wear.
