Description: | A cast copper alloy double-sided coin weight of late medieval date. The coin weight is square and flat, measuring 16.46mm by 16.07mm by 1.9mm and weighing 2.94g. The design is rather worn on both sides but appears to show a crowned shield decorated with three fleurs-de-lis. This would therefore appear to be a coin weight for the French ecu (a denomination issued between 1422-1475) which was produced in Germany or the Low Countries (Withers and Withers 1995, p. 39). | 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: | 1422
