Description: | A complete worn and cleaned cast square double-sided coin weight for a James I, Second Coinage unite, issued AD 1604-19 (Withers and Withers 1995, 25 and 68). The weight for a unite during this period was 155.0 grains. This Isle of Wight find weighs 8.76g. (135.2 grains). The difference in weight can probably be accounted for by the loss of metal due to wear and cleaning. Each edge has been subjected to heavy filing.
