Description: | Probably post-medieval lead weight, doubly truncated biconical, i.e. with both ends flat, and with a longitudinal round perforation. Length 22.3mm. Diameter 8.5 - 14.5mm. Hole diameter 4.5mm. Weight 0.7620oz Troy / 15.23 pennyweights / 365.6 grains / 23.69g. The close correlation to ¾ ounce Troy may perhaps be a coincidence and use with a net is more likely. The fresh condition suggests it is post-medieval. Cf. NMS-A2cAF1. c.1540 - c.1800.Field SH2 | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | https://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/ | Go to resource |
