Description: | Cast copper alloy square coin weight with four annulets on each side, in each of the four corners of the square, and a countermark on each side in the form of a degenerate little lion. The four annulets probably represent four penny-weights or deniers if it is a continental coin weight.
Biggs and Withers (2000) illlustrate a similar lead weight with four dots on each side, weighing 5.09 g, on page 67, No.275. | 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 | Creator: | Anna Tyacke | Identifier: | http://www.finds.org.uk/database/artefac... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | text/html | Go to resource |
