great find!

For the second time in my life, i find a medieval seal. Medium sound (1, near a old dust road. I don't know yet the identification but he is from the 14th century. Super happy about it, here is some pictures for sharing with you. I was using the small 18,75KHz coil. I order some wax to make a print.

Wow! Hard to even imagine what it was like 700yrs ago.

Are they going to let you keep it now that it's been catalogued?

i second "OL" on that question, thats the first thing i thought after reading your last post, do you get to keep it for your efforts or does the government confiscate it ?

Nobody ask for it, so i keep the object until they want it. In two months i send him for registration in a catalogue with the definitive id. For the info, the first one is not yet identified but he is rare. The reason, they never had a so small equestrian seal like that before.
