Description: | Cast lead trade weight dating to the late medieval period. The weight is shield shaped and flat with a cast design on the top surface of a double fleur de lis in a slightly raised field. The mass of the weight is 53.2g. The design on the weight is a fairly common one for this type of object and may denote some sort of official approval or officical weighing system at the time. The weight measures 41.2mm in length, 31.8mm in width and 10.3mm in thickness. | 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: | 1350
