Description: | A post-medieval silver seal matrix with fluted handle, three transverse bands and suspension loop. The seal is engraved with a shield with a single diagonal band with three stars and crest with mantling above. The form of the seal-die and the style of the mantling suggests an 18th century date, not necessarily pre-1707. The seal-die cannot be securely dated to pre-1707 and as such it falls outside the provisions of the Treasure Act 1996 (Dr Dora Thornton, Curator of Renaissance Collections, The British Museum).
