Description: | Lead weight. Cast standing weight of conical form with a rounded top. A triangular dimple appears in the base, probably stamped. This object might be intended to represent two [slightly overweight] ounces in one of the various systems of measurement used between the Roman and Post-Medieval periods, but the correlation of mass is not so precise as to favour one period over another. Suggested date: Unknown, Roman to Post-Medieval, 43-1800.Diameter: 21.5mm, Height: 25.5mm, Weight: 59.79gms.
