Typically very neatly cast in a perfectly rectangular mold with one end left open, that end with several clean chiselings from its time to fine-tune the weight, one of the lateral sides graced at the other end with deeply stamped markings, smooth surfaces throughout (no corrosion) and lightly toned.
