Object type: WEIGHT
Broad period: MEDIEVAL
County: Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Lead weight. Cast discoid weight with an uneven upper surface on which appear straight lines moulded in bold relief. The lines may represent two separate arrowhead forms or perhaps an untidy monogram including letter forms resembling M and V. On the base – or the top as cast in an open mould - there is a central dimple with a crudely incised triangle around it. Patinated.

This might represent some entirely different subject in this form, for example a constellation. A border interrupted by a triangular-topped feature appears below the image and indeterminate elements of the wider composition appear above. Suggested date: Late Medie…

Copper alloy finger ring fragment. Cast ring fragment comprising a rectangular flat bezel and straight-sided shoulders, rounded within the band.
