Description: | Coin weight of James I weighing 13.41g (207gr). It is of a copper alloy, probably brass. It is square, although the reverse is smaller than the obverse (18mm vs 20.5mm). It has a thick patina which obscures much of the fine detail.
It was a weight for a rose ryal and dates from the time of the second coinage of James I, i.e. post 1612.
