Description: | A cast lead alloy, Medieval seal matrix dating from AD 1200 - 1400. It is of the pointed oval (vesica) type and has a central, floral motif, possibly a lily. Most of the letters are visible, but they do not seem to make a logical legend. It is probably a non-personal legend. They appear to read: "+ REGRDE P. EH OT". At one end of the reverse is an integral suspension loop. The seal is 24.18mm long, 15.56mm wide and 4.36mm thick. It weighs 9.75gm. It is cracked and the metal is stressed where it has been bent across the middle.
