An unknown composite object of probable modern date. The object consists of a flat and circular cast piece of lead which has been attached to wood with a ferrous screw. Dimensions: length: 43mm, width: 22mm, diameter of lead: 24mm, weight: 28g. The first satisfactory screw-cutting lathe was invented by Jesse Ramsden in 1770, so the object can not pre-date that.
