Description: | A complete cast copper alloy uniface object, probably a coin weight. Possibly Medieval to Post-Medieval (c. AD 1425 - c. AD 1650). Length: 14.7mm; width: 14.3mm and 2.4mm thick. Weight: 3.61g.The object is square in plan and has slightly bevelled edges. The front face has a design within a square beaded border. However, due to corrosion and possibly wear, the design is indeterminate. It is possible that there is a crown above the beaded square. The rear face is flat and plain.No analogy found in Withers & Withers 1995, 'Lions, Ships and Angels'. Therefore, a wide date range of c. 1425-1650 has been suggested.
