Description: | Cast copper alloy seal matrix Length 28mm, width 28mm, thickness 11mm, weight 8.09g. This is a multiple seal matrix which would have consisted of four dies emanating from a central perforated hub, but two have been truncated, this is an old break. The arms are oval in cross-section and expand to a flattened oval terminal, the face of each contains a low-relief device within in a border. The devices are as follows: first is a stag running right to left, second is a Crescent. Similar dies have been recorded on the database ESS-393EF8 WILTD1D4D6 WAWBC0821. Dark green patina, some pitting as a result of corrosion. Dies such as this are dated to the 17th century. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Adams, Kurt - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
