Description: | Lead and Iron Steelyard Weight. Cast biconical weight with the stub of a ferrous metal suspension loop at its apex. Patinated overall. The mass may suggest this to have represented one half a Roman libra if used with a large balance, though the missing suspension loop might also be allowed for. Suggested date: Roman, 40-400.Diameter (actually a long axis): 43.9mm, Height: 37.8mm, Weight: c.260gms.
