Description: | Large lead cloth seal, in good condition but with Disc 2 bent in half. Disc 1 is not stamped, but has scratched numbers: 409 above a line, with what is probably - 311 - (with a short dash to either side) below. Disc 1 is 25 mm in diameter, Disc 2 is 23.5 mm, and the connecting strip is 10 mm long. Similar to Egan 1994, no. 234, which is a clothier's or weaver's or searcher's personal seal. The significance of the numbers is uncertain; as Egan points out, they can hardly refer to the dimensions of the cloth. Post-medieval, 16th or 17th century.
