A copper alloy square coin weight probably dating from the third coinage of James I (1619 – 1625) for weighing an Angel coin. The weight is 15.5mm long, 14.4mm wide and 2.8mm thick. It weighs 3.8g. It is stamped with St Michael slaying a dragon on one face, and a crown with “X • S” below on the other. This stands for 10 shilling, the value of the coin. This weigh is a little light for the nominal value of the coin at 58.6 grains instead of 65.5.
