Description: | A Post Medieval disc-shaped lead weight. The weight is circular in plan and stamped on both faces. Both faces are stamped with a variety of stamps or countermaarks. The first face bears four stamps with the angular and straight-sided initial 'W' within a rectangle with pellets within; a tower; and sun which is surrounded by twelve sunrays. On the opposite face, the stamps are less clear: there are three (or possibly four) 'W' stamps (as above) and at least one, or possibly two, unclear stamps. The weight weighs 50g or 1.76 ounces, and is therefore likely to have been a 2 ounce weight.
