I have to say that you make some points that I have been wondering about since this first showed up in the auction.</p><p><br /></p><p>The more I read about the use of weights in the region, the more it makes me wonder if this is indeed an earlier creation.

Other than the specimen cited by Williams, I have found no others with sceats embedded. Of course I am relying on the internet and whatever academic resources I can access on-line. </p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>While the research is a bit sparse so far, it has been very interesting.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
