Scale Weight, Ottoman Empire, ca. Early-Mid 16th Century, Rare!
Copper alloy; roughly 10mm per side/5.8gm
Con/ As Cast and Drilled; warm brown patina.
Description/ This is 14-sided (tetra-decagon) Ottoman weight is ridiculously rare.
Seller's Note/ Ground-found in the Balkans, this weight is exactly the same as of two Islamic Dirhams of 2.9 grams each; the pair of two drilled punchmarks reducing it to the perfect scale weight. That being the case, if you are seriously collecting such issues, our weight is a "must have" for your collection.
