Description: | An incomplete and very worn and damaged post-medieval lead alloy cloth seal, probably dating to the 16th/ 17th century. It has been bent in an 'S' shape in profile.This is a two part cloth seal comprising two circular discs, both of which are incomplete, linked by a rectangular tab. Disc one has the initials IA in relief, possibly within a circular border. Other details are obscured. Disc two has the number 251 (or perhaps 257) in relief and apparently nothing else above, below and to the right of this. These numbers probably relate to yardages or widths for the cloths.It measures 21.92mm in length, 19.84mm in diameter, 2.38mm in thickness and weighs 4.65g.
