Description: | Cast copper alloy Medieval seal matrix dating from the 13th or 14th century. It has a circular die (diameter 20mm) which narrows into a hexagonally faceted conical handle. This terminates with a perforated pointed knop for suspension. The central motif comprises a figure on horseback. The inscription reads SOhU ROB.. The rest of the lettering can not be read due to damage but this is clearly a version of Sohou Robin, a fairly common anonymous inscription. Similar examples include SOMDOR-2D8983 and LANCUM-45FCC6.
