Description: | A copper alloy seal matrix dating from the medieval period. The matrix has a circular base, a hexagonal faceted conical handle with a collar beneath the lozenge shaped terminal. There is a circular suspension hole through the terminal. The motif is of a squirrel facing right (described from the impression) with the legend " * I CRAKE NOTI(S)". A similar matrix on the PAS database is IHS-2554C7. This design and inscription seem to have been popular in the 13th and 14th century.
