Satisfying Antique 2 lb Iron Weight in Gold Paint whale longest @ 10" longJust a very satisfying old scale weight, cast iron, with old gold paint over the 2 and around the rim. The sort of thing that I can't help but to pick up and carry around the store, and which is just too right to leave behind. I see and pass by a lot of scale weights, but not this one. A lucky no. 2! 3 3 4" in diameter x 1" tall. Weighs 2 lbs! Good condition, great patina.
