Description: | A lead alloy vesica-shaped (pointed oval) seal matrix dating from the Medieval period. The seal matrix is bent, leaving part of its inscription indecipherable. It seems to read: "S'NIC[--]ASLTROMP" which means the seal of Nicolas (unknown surname). The central motif is also unclear. The seal's small suspension loop located on the back has bent to one side. The matrix dates from the 13th or 14th century. Compare DENO-4709B5.Length: 28.6mm; Width: 19.5mm; Thickness: 7.4mm; Weight: 8.95g
