Description

An oval seal is photographed on a light card mount, with a dark rim around its edge. Its flat face carries a dark design: a row of small rounded notches along the top, a round motif at left, a curving stroke and a wavy band below, and an angular shape at right. The outline is uneven and the surface looks worn.
