Description: | A corroded cast lead seal matrix of medieval date (13th-14th century). The matrix is of pointed oval shape, with a central longitudinal ridge on the reverse that features a sub-rectangular stub (10.0 x 3.9 x 3.2 (high) mm) towards one end. The sides are bevelled. The die features a floral motif: three stalks emerging from a crescent, the side two terminating in flowers formed of three pellets arranged in a triangle. Around is a personal legend; there is no border. The legend is fairly illegible - '...CE...'; the initial cross is formed of four pellets, perhaps a third flower at the end of the central stalk.
