Description: | A two-part cast lead cloth seal of probable late fifteenth or early sixteenth century date. The fragment measures 23.18mm by 19.28mm by 5.52mmmm and weighs 8.27g. The first disc shows a crude crown over an ornate shield with the arms of England, a rose and possibly a sun to the sides. Disc 2 has a large letter F with a rose and sun to the sides. The letter F was used from 1474 to indicate a textile with minor faults that were significant enough to have the customer's attention drawn to them in this way (pers. comm. Geoff Egan). | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Payne, Naomi - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
