Object type: WEIGHT
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Oxfordshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
A complete lead-alloy gaming piece or weight of uncertain date. The object is sub-conical with a base that has an uneven concave hollow at its centrebase and tapering sides to a rounded top. It appears undecorated. The object is 18.8mm tall, 23.2mm in diameter and weighs 41.50 g. Lead objects such as this are common metal detector finds but are rare from excavated contexts. This means that the dating of lead objects of this general type is problematic, and their use is invariably uncertain. Similarly shaped objects are known from Viking contexts and are interpreted as weig…

Lead probable spindle whorl. Cast cylindrical whorl with a central moulded aperture of diameter 11.6mm, Walton Rogers form B. A possibly moulded design has been partially carried over to one flat side only, unless these irregularities represent shrinkage in an open mould, and lipping appears on the opposite side. Patinated, and probably lightly distorted. The mass points to a primary function plying cord, if not as a flywheel for some other mechanical purpose. The size of spindle hole could admit an Anglo-Scandinavian date, but the possible decoration on one side might rather point to …

Copper alloy unidentified object. Triangle of thin sheet metal with two rounded corners and two tiny [diameter 1.1mm] holes, one blind. Possibly for a small value from a set of chemist’s weights. The discovery of a scale of Roman lorica squamata (NLM-C42002) which also has cut corners, reported along with this object, might alternatively suggest this to be another piece of scale armour, albeit of different form.
