Robinson 1941: Inv. 31.334. Lead weight. Dm. 0.041 m. to 0.043 m., Th. 0.013 m., \Veight 142 grammes. Circular. Obverse roughly spherical. The reverse is flat. The transition from the spherical to the flat surface is made by a rough band (0.003 m. to 0.006 m. wide). In the center of the obverse cut in fairly irregular lines are the unique letters in ligature ΤΡΙ = τρι(τημόριον), since the weight is about one-third of the mina which would be ca. 426 grammes.
