Ok I found this in an old pot of coins, I have no idea what it is but it seems to have markings that look like a ( £ 18 ) but the "£" is a little different. Never seen anything like it before, it is also extreamly thick. Can you help.

It would help if you provided a diameter measurement and in this case a thickness measurement. However, it looks like some kind of a weight to me.

I agree looks like a weight - probably an unoffical local trade weight. £18 is a high amount to have stamped on a weight, older pieces tend to be guinea / half Guinea weights, or shillings. Perhaps this is a decimel piece? how heavy is it + dimensions?
