    Description

    Lot of 3 neat old coins / bullion weights.  I think they date to circa 1700s, please review the photos and make your own determination.
    The larger rectangular piece may be a dug find.  It is stamped 2:0 over F and I think it may be a 2 Florin gold coin weight. as the florin "was one of the earliest internationally accepted gold bullion coins" (per Withers
    Lions, Ships & Angels
    ),   This is a guess though.  It is sized about 25mm x 20mm & 6.0g.  Also included is a round piece stamped "27" which I believe is a 27 shillings weight for a Portuguese Moidore.  This was a popular gold standard in both England and the American Colonies.  It is sized about 20mm-21mm & 10.7g.  The third weight is a 4 pennyweights which has been stamped on both sides with a lion countermark.  It is sized about 15mm x 7mm & 6.2g.
