Description: | LeadWeight. Disc cut from cast sheet with an off centre D shaped hole of diameter 4mm. Lightly patinated overall. As it now exists this object does not appear to match the various historic systems of weights and measures in use in the region, though it could have served as a quarter ounce averdepois weight before being perforated. Possibly a home made hem weight. Suggested date: Possibly Post-Medieval, 1700-1800.Diameter: 24.6mm, Thickness: 1.7mm, Weight: 6.14gms.
