Description: | A medieval copper-alloy seal matrix. The matrix has a flat, circular base measuring 13mm in diameter. A hexagonally faceted handle rises from the seal, terminating with a pierced, lozenge shaped suspension loop. The face of the seal depicts a church. The central tower is rectangular and has two windows at the top and a door below. A shorter rectangular room or wing projects to either side, the left hand one having a small, thin rectangle extending upwards at the edge. A further possible door is located in this left hand projection. There is no legend surrounding the scene, though the abraded nature of the perimeter suggests that it has been removed, possibly intentionally.
