Description: | Lead vesica (pointed oval) seal matrix dating to the medieval period. The matrix is very worn and has been struck by the plough. The front surface is largely smooth which either indicates that this is an uncut matrix or possibly that it is simply a worn example. On the reverse, the matrix displays a small loop near the top, possibly for wearing around the neck on a string. The matrix weighs 12.1g and measures 26.86mm in length, 17.81mm in width and 7.31mm 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: | 1200
