Description: | Complete Post Medieval copper alloy coin weight of a king Charles possibly I or II, or foreign. Obverse is a crowned bust with the Legend CARO REX surrounded by a pelleted border. The bust has mostly been lost due to a hole that has been drilled through the weight presumably to adjust it. The obverse design is quite worn and has been stamped off center. The reverse of the weight is blank. The weight is brassy in colour and the mild lipping around the circumference of the hole suggests it has been drilled from the reverse side.Diameter: 17.04mm, Diameter of Hole: 3.98mm, Thickness: 5.56mm Weight: 9.33g
