<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 2599039, member: 19463"]The Kent book <b>Roman Coins</b> illustrates and gives weights of some similar but earlier pieces. They tend to be referred to as a multiple like a "Medallion of nine solidi" which is about this size and should weigh 9x the standard solidus weight or about 40g? Whatever we come up with will be nothing more than a guess. I don't have a book illustrating Byzantine medallions for comparison.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
