Description: | A copper alloy circular uniface coin weight. The device depicts a sailing vessel with the figure of a crowned king standing centrally with a sword in his right hand and a quartered shield on his left arm. The rear face of the weight is flat and plain. The weight is probably for a half ryal (rose noble) which was introduced in the reign of Edward IV (1464) and used throughout the later medieval and post-Medieval periods.
