  • Thumbnail image of LVPL-729CE5

Record ID: LVPL-729CE5
Object type: WEIGHT
Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: Flintshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
Medieval cast lead weight, both sides have no noticeable inscriptions, but one side does have a grooved pattern and the other face has two linear incisions, possibly intended to be numerals. On this side there are some grey markings around the edge. The object has a cream patina. The thickness of the disc has led to the suggestion that it is a weight, not a token.
