Description: | Disc 1 from a two-part cast lead cloth seal of probable late fifteenth or early sixteenth century date. The surviving fragment measures 24.62mm by 19.87mm by 3.41mm and weighs 4.2g. The exterior of the disc has a crude crown over an ornate shield with the arms of England and a rose to each side. On the rivet there appears to be a large letter F. The letter F was used from 1474 to indicate a textile with minor faults that were significant enough to have the customer's attention drawn to them in this way (pers. comm. Geoff Egan). | 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: | 1474
