Description: | Circular lead seal matrix, 26 mm diameter, with a raised rib on the reverse ending in an unpierced lug. The central motif is a boat with a boldly engraved hull and more lightly scratched gunwale strake, mast and two mast stays. This is enclosed within a circle, and the legend around reads S' WILL: LE. OFFICIEL (Seal of William the Official). This may be perhaps a seal of office of a port official. A very interesting find! | Format: | text/html | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ | Publisher: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Rights holder: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Subjects: | archaeology | Temporal: | 1200
