It is formed from two circular discs of lead connected by a thin integrally cast connecting strip and in two other places by the lead folded over to join the two halves together. Both exterior faces have stamped decoration comprising on side A two lines of writing reading [WIL?]LIAM//[]HESTER and on side B a flower or thistle wrapped in a long ribbon and with the legend TRADE REGISTERED. The object measures 19.50mm in diameter, 5.38mm in thickness, and weighs 8.87g. This is probably a cloth or alnage seal of Post-Medieval to Modern date, perhaps belonging in the 18th or 19th centuries AD or later.
