Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: Isle of Wight
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
An incomplete post-Medieval cast lead musket ball (c. 1600-c. 1800). This ball appears to have been flattened due to impact. On the flattened side there is a scalloped break with curving striations which may be the result of a later event. It is grey with flecks of a buff patina. Length: 16.9mm; width: 15.9mm; thickness: 9.2mm. Weight: 11.18g. The weight suggests that it could have been used in a pistol (Harding 2012). Harding, D.F., 2012. Lead Shot of the English Civil War: A Radical Study. London. Foresight Books. London.

Object type: STEELYARD WEIGHT
Broad period: ROMAN
County: Norfolk
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Three Roman lead steelyard weights with embedded iron suspension loops: - biconical, open part of loop missing, diameter 42-5mm, height 41mm, weight 335g. - biconical, diameter 42-3mm, height without loop 40.5mm, weight 338g. - globular, open part of loop missing, diameter 40-2mm, height 39mm, weight 315g. All three weigh quite close to a Roman pound (libra) which = c.325g, though of course a steelyard weight does not need to conform to a weight system.

Object type: COIN
Broad period: MEDIEVAL
County: Northamptonshire
Workflow stage: Published
Aworn medieval silver halfpenny of Edward III (1327-77) of the Third 'Florin' coinage (1344-1351), probably belonging to Withers Type 6. The mint is London. The full identification of this coin is difficult owing to its condition but the shape of the X (in REX), size of the letters and their untidy alingment probably indicates this is Wither Type 6.
