Description: | A copper alloy Post-medieval coin weight. It is very worn and the detail is largely missing, but sufficient remains to identify this as a British weight for the sovereigns issued from the reign of Henry VII to that of Elizabeth I, and for the rose-ryal of James I. The weight is roughly square, measuring 19.35mm long, 19.05mm wide and 4.35mm. It weighs 11.33grams. The obverse contains the numerals XXXIII and the reverse contains the Royal shield in a circular border. The weight dates from 1612 to 1632 and is a weight for a rose ryal.
