From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:

  Kesitah
     (Gen. 33:19, R.V., marg., a Hebrew word, rendered, A.V., pl.
     "pieces of money," marg., "lambs;" Josh. 24:32, "pieces of
     silver;" Job 42:11, "piece of money"). The kesitah was probably
     a piece of money of a particular weight, cast in the form of a
     lamb. The monuments of Egypt show that such weights were used.
