Description: | A copper alloy coin weight for a unite, or 'laurel' of James I and dating from c. AD 1620-1632. The coin weight is worn but 'XX' can be made out on the reverse, stating the value of 20 shillings. The bust on the obverse of the unite coin was the first time a British monach was seen with a laureate crown. The coin weight is underweight at 128 grains - the wear does not account for this. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
