Description: | An incomplete lead alloy post-medieval cloth seal, possibly from the Netherlands and dating to the 17th century AD. The seal consists of the two joined faceplates, but is missing its connecting arm. One side of the seal is plain, whereas the other has an intricate design, probably relating to the issuer. The design consists of two XX's from the top of which extends a pole with two cross-arms, above which is half an arrowhead. The letters N C appear either side of the pole just above the X's. Double X's are associated with Amersfoort cloth which was produced in the Netherlands.
