Description: | An incomplete post-medieval lead-alloy cloth seal of late 17th-century date. It is probably an inner disc from a four-disc alnage/subsidy seal, broken towards the base of the discs. On this, 'disc 3' are three fleurs-de-lis arramged in an inverted triangle with a mark of value, 1 1/2, split by the lower lis. The reverse is seemingly plain. See Egan (1994, 178; ref. 142), Saunders ed. (2001, 62; ref. 100) and NMS-16EFC1 on this database. The Salisbury example is attributed to the reign of Charles II, the London one to William III, although the bust is described as being in the style of Charles II.
