Description: | Unseen, recorded from impression only. Copper alloy, circular seal matrix, hexagonal handle terminating in suspension loop at top. Device of the Agnus Dei (Lamb of God). A lamb, facing right, looking back over its shoulder at a staff. The lamb's left foreleg is folded under him as he genuflects. The top of the staff is a cross with flared ends, possibly a cross patonce; below this a three-tailed banner bearing a saltire flies to the left from the staff. The base of the staff disappears from view behind the lamb's back. Device is separated from the legend by a line.
Measurements: face approximately 14 mm diameter.
