Description: | A Medieval copper alloy unfinished seal matrix (13th - 14th century). This seal matrix has been miscast and there is no inscription or motif on the die. It is an oval seal matrix with a central faceted handle ending in a trefoil terminal with a collar at the junction between the handle and the terminal. The two halves of the matrix are slightly misaligned suggesting the two halves of the mould were not correctly aligned or they slipped during the casting process. Dimensions: length: 26.56mm; width: 21.21mm; thickness: 26.78mm; weight: 21.59g.
