Description: | Medieval lead seal matrix. The matrix is vesica or pointed oval shaped and flat. The back is also flat with only two small circular indentations near the top and bottom. The central motif of the seal is a phallus, below which is a single vertical line, presumably indicating the legs. The inscription (written in reverse) reads SIGILLUM HENRICI 'seal of Henry'. The seal matrix weighs 14.50g and measures 37mm in length, 22.8mm in width and 3mm in thickness. | 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: | 1066
