Description: | Medieval cast lead circular seal matrix. This is a personal seal of Wilfred or William Bonere. There is a central eight-petalled flower motif. The legend surrounds the central motif. The incised description is unclear, and possibly reads '*: S V (or W?) ILLI BONERE'. The reverse of the seal matrix has an integrally cast suspension loop. The reverse is also decorated, comprised of three mofits; There is a cross in line with the suspension loop, and to either side is a motif resembling a chisel or hour-glass. The seal matrix has a diameter of 26mm. The thickness and weight are unknown due to original recording conditions. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Hobbs, Richard - British Museum | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
