Those brass bell-form weights with the G R mark are likely Imperial British trade weights from the Georgian era, with “G R” standing for Georgius Rex (Latin for King George). That mark was commonly used during the reigns of George III (1760–1820) and George IV (1820–1830).
Age Estimation
- G R mark: Indicates British origin under King George’s reign.
- Bell form: Popular in 18th–19th century trade weights, especially for apothecaries and merchants.
- Imperial system: Suggests use in weighing ounces and pounds, not metric.
