Description: | Complete lead alloy cloth seal. This seal has both of its circular halves pressed together, with the rectangular stalk between them still visible. Circular in plan, the seal has a diameter of 34.04mm, is 5.56mm thick and weighs 33.38g. One circular side of the seal is smaller than the other, so that one sits within the diameter of the other. One side is decorated with a moulded design, within a rope border, of what appears to be waves with a stalked plant to either side. Around this is an illegible legend in gothic script. The reverse, smaller side also has a moulded design of a rope border within which is a crowned shield, with an illegible design. Around this is a legend, mostly destroyed that reads + [ ]III. Despite the lettering style, this seal is probably post medieval in date.
