Description: | A fragment of a Medieval lead alloy seal matrix dating to the c. 14th century AD. The seal matrix would have been discoidal, but now only a small portion of the seal surface remains along with a portion of a raised vertical ridge on the reverse surface. The break is uneven and jagged, suggesting in situ damage. The remains of the inscription read, '+ S'(E?)[...]ANIV'. The central depiction seems to be a wheat sheaf or similar with additional decoration, now lost due to damage.
