Description: | Lead seal of probable late 16th to early 17th C. AD date. Probable clothiers, weaver's, or searcher's personal seal (see ref.). The object consists of two intact circular lead discs, measuring 25.7mm in diameter by 3mm thick (total thickness). These discs are joined by a folded lead strip. Both of the discs are decorated with the same design, this being a lion rampant, facing left, within a raised circular border. The design is similar to the reference given below and it is suggested that it may be of Continental origin and that the lion may be a Belgic symbol. No letters are visible. The object has heavily corroded surfaces and weighs 15.75g.
