This is for a set of 2 Myanmar Burma bronze opium weights. These weights came from the Roger McCarthy collection. Roger McCarthy was a CIA Agent during 1959 and helped train Tibetans to escape Chinses communism. A lot of the items Mr. McCarthy acquired were gifts to him from important foreign figures. I believe these to be early 1900's. Please refer to pictures for more info on Roger McCarthy and detail on the weights. Feel free to message with any questions. 
The large weight is 2lbs 3.256oz, 3 3/8" tall
Small weight is1lb 2.952oz, 2 7/8" tall
