Description: | A complete Post-Medieval cast copper alloy coin weight dating from about 1500-1650 from Antwerp. It is sub square in plan. The obverse has a standing figure, probably of St Ladislaus, holding orb and long axe with an unidentified letter on the left and a D on the right; the reverse has an upright hand inside a circular border, although this is difficult to see. The coin weight is in fair condition but has a somewhat pitted appearance. It has a partial green patina and the rest of the weight is medium brown. Coin weights with a similar obverse design may be found on the database at PAS record IDs: KENT-1DE790 and SUR-71E752.Length: 15mm; Width: 14.5mm; Thickness: 2.1mm; Weight: 3.03g
