Description: | Thick flat circular lead weight, 22 mm in diameter and 7 mm thick. In the centre is a circular perforation 5 mm in diameter. The edges of the weight are slightly raised. It weighs 22.4g (0.8 oz). Assigning a date and function to simple weights such as this one is not easy, but lead weights do seem to have been most common in the medieval and post-medieval periods.
