Description: | A cast copper alloy weight dating from the post medieval or modern period with a diameter of 31.3mm and a thickness of 6.1mm. It weighs 27.2 grams or 0.95 ounces, suggesting that this was supposed to have been a one ounce weight. It has a lip running around the outside edge of one face. The rimed face has a central pair of concentric circles. The lipped face is also engraved with the crowned letters "G R" suggesting that it dates from the Georgian period (1714 - 1830). The opposite side of the weight has a large central dimple. A similar example is LVPL-0F7244 on the database.
