A late post-medieval/ modern circular lead weight measuring 16.7mm in diameter, 8.4mm in thickness and weighing 16.28g.

A copper alloy probable hammered 'cob' 8 Maravedis resellado issued for Philip IV of Spain (1621-65), worn completely flat to both sides except for a counter-stamped VIII on one side (just below the centre) and VIII and XII on the other (around the edge). Cf. SF-6E18D2 and SUR-4E17B8, both of which retain much of their original design and weigh a little heavier than this example. The counter-stamping indicates the official re-valuing of the Spanish coinage during the year 1641, indicating that this particular coin must have arrived in Britain sometime after this point. These pieces a…
