Description: | A rounded/ egg-shaped lead steelyard weight, of possible Roman date (length: 65.1mm; diameter/ width: 44mm; weight: exceeds the weight of the scales). The surface of the weight is particularly smooth with small indentations/ accidental scratch marks. There is iron corrosion appearing at the botom and top of the weight's length, particularly at what appears to be the top where the iron protrudes out to a rounded point by 4/5mm, and was originally a feature of greater length. The artefact is slightly worn, but in a fair condition. | Format: | text/html | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ | Publisher: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Rights holder: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Subjects: | archaeology | Temporal: | 43
