Description: | Circular copper-alloy seal matrix, 17 mm diameter. A hexagonally facetted conical handle rises to a triple collar below a trefoil terminal, with a perforation blocked by iron corrosion. The central motif is a profile head of John the Baptist, looking upwards from a dish which has a short pedestal. The legend around appears to read SV LE CAPVT ([I] am the head). It begins under the left-hand end of the dish (when held so that the dish is flat as it would be on a table), runs around and ends at the chin. The rest of the space appears blank. | 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: | 1300
