Description: | The object is probably a cast lead or lead alloy bag seal. The date is likely to be in the Post Medieval period, perhaps 17th to 19th centuries.
In plan it is sub-circular. There are two slender rectangular holes running through the side of the seal. One face of the seal has a portion of a beaded border with ?IS / Z'in high relief. The other face has a shield shaped outline with a high-relief ?+? in the centre. In the upper quarters of the ?+? there is a cluster of small pellets. The shield is within a beaded border.
The seal weighs 9.7g and measures 19.44mm long, 18.35mm wide and 4.57mm thick. | 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: | 1600
