Some nice finds there Monco well done, the lead item is an Alnage seal (though very big) but from which country or under which ruler is another question. ;)

It does look like a cloth seal, and the look of the lead indicates it is quite old. Possibly North African, from the AL - Andalus period in the Iberian Peninsular, ( muslim / Islamic ocupancy ) from 711 Ad I think till  late 14th century..
