Description: | The two inner discs (discs two and three) from a lead cloth seal measuring 18mm in diameter. One is plain and the other has a portcullis design on it. There may have originally been a crown over the portcullis, as is the case with several known examples, although this part of the disc has worn away. Similar seals are believed to date to the 16th century and were used to mark cloth for commercial sale (Egan 1995). | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Minter, Faye - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
