Description: | Medieval copper alloy seal matrix with a faceted handle and flat pierced trefoil-shaped loop above three horizontal mouldings. The matrix itself is circular (19mm in diameter). The legend seems to read S' ?A/G V ?E/?L C?/?O NVLRVWE.. around a robed figure (with hood?) holding a ?book to its leftwhile a cross stands to its right. Two odd pointed-oval shapes seem to be extending from stems around the figure, ?leaves or flowers perhaps. The edges are too worn to be able to read this insicrption clearly, although it is not uncommon for an inscription to be garbled and make no sense (to us) whatsoever. | 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 | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Katie Hinds | Identifier: | http://www.finds.org.uk/database/artefac... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | text/html | Go to resource |
