Description: | Copper-alloy seal matrix, shield-shaped with a flat top and convex sides, and measuring 28 mm long and 21 mm wide. On the reverse is a longitudinal rib with a transverse groove near the top which may mark the position of a broken-off pierced lug. The front is engraved with a very corroded central motif; a rampant lion on the right (as you look at it) facing a ***. Around is the inscription between dotted borders, reading * IE SV SEL DE AMVR LEL (I am the seal of loyal love). This is a fairly common 14th-century inscription. | 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
