Title: My first one of these
Post by: wittsy1 on May 23, 2017, 10:44:55 AM
I don't seem to be getting out as much as I want to these days but did manage a few hours on a new permission Sunday morning just gone. After lots of Lead, a tatty thimble and some other scrappy oddments, out popped this Seal Matrix. I did a bit of research and reckon its Medieval possibly 13th century. Perhaps the Doc and you knowledgeable people might be able to confirm this.

There is something on the base but I think I need to do a bit of gentle cleaning to bring it up.

Great find wittsy. Do us a pressing when you've got it cleaned.

One of the things on my wish list.

                   A really nice find! It will be interesting to see a pressing and perhaps discover who it originally belonged to.
