Description: | The upper half of a vesica shaped (pointed oval) copper alloy seal matrix. Reverse flat and plain; no sign of suspension loop. Matrix in poor condition, with surface crumbling away. Device: On the left, a figure with short, curly hair seated on a chair, the back of which is visible behind him. His hand is raised, possibly blessing, a male figure kneeling in front of him, whose hands are joined in supplication. The spaces around the figures are decorated with a diagonal mesh; at the centre of each "diamond" there is a dot. Device area separated from legend by a neat beaded line; a similar line marks the outer edge of the matrix.
