Description: | A cast lead alloy, medieval seal matrix dating from AD1200-1400. In shape it is a pointed oval and there is a central stiffening rib and the remains of a suspension loop on the upper side. The motif is of a single fleur-de-lys. Unfortunately the edge of the seal is damaged, and some sections are missing, so that only some of the letters of the legend are decipherable: "[...]O(A)EICAR[...]ARI". The matrix is 33.6mm long, 20.6mm wide and 6.3mm thick. It weighs 10.8gm.
