Title
Early Medieval Weight from Roxby cum Risby
Description
English: Lead

Weight. Cast discoid weight, thicker towards one edge than the other. Patinated overall. Round weights of similar form and mass occur among later medieval finds from London, circa 1330-1380. However, as the mass is within one tenth of a gram of the Scandinavian ore, and the use of this measure in the region was common, an Early Medieval date may be preferred. Suggested date: possibly Early Medieval, 850-1000.

Diameter: 26.2mm, Thickness: 5mm, Weight: 22.90gms.
Depicted place (County of findspot) North Lincolnshire
Date between 850 and 1000
