Description: | A very worn copper-alloy coin weight of medieval or post-medieval date. It is circular and seemingly decorated unifacially. The upper face seems to depict a king with shield standing in a ship. The design and size of this coin weight are consistent with it relating to a noble. Withers & Withers (1995, 18) illustrate these 15th- and 16th-century coin weights. | 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: | 1450
