Description: | A cast lead circular weight with a central hole, possibly a spindle whorl. The weight has been crudely shaped into a donut shape. On one side of the weight the central perforation is surrounded by an incised circle, making the entrance to the hole slightly concave. However, on the other side of the weight the hole sits flush to the surface of the lead weight. The weight is undecorated. The surface of the lead is heavily pitted. The lead is a light whitish-grey colour. The weight is 27.9mm in diameter and is 11.9mm thick. The weight weighs 52.4g. Due to a lack of excavated examples these weights must remain undated. | 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 | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://www.finds.org.uk/database/artefac... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | text/html | Go to resource |
