Description: | A complete cast copper alloy trade weight of post-medieval date. The weight is circular in plan with a raised rim and a small central indentation with a circular border. A worn impression is present close to the rim and is likely to represent a crown thought it is too worn for a definite identification. The reverse is undecorated and is slightly concave at the central point. The metal has a mid brownish-green patina and is worn. The weight is 23.4mm in diameter, 5.3mm thick and weighs 13.4g (0.47 oz) so was probably a half-ounce weight.
