Description: | A copper-alloy circular uniface coin weight for a florin. The weight depicts a fleur de lis on one face. It has a legend around the exterior which suggests it is from France or the Low Countries. What can be made out of the legend appears to read P D...OR[I?]S. This may be a deviation from P DE FLOE (Weight of Florin), although alternatively it may be the name of an issuer. Florins circulated from the mid 14th to mid 16th centuries AD. It is 13.62 mm in diameter and 2.75 mm thick. It weighs 2.1 grams.
