Description: | Cast lead seal dating to the 13th century. It is circular in plan and rectangular in cross-section. The inscription reads S' ROBERTI DE RID, meaning seal of Robert of Rid. The central design is of a sun and the circular central perforation forms the central part of the sun. The edges have been damaged and it has a mid white patina. It is possible that a small handle protruded from one of the broken edges as can be seen on LEIC-FA9BC7.
