Description

A rectangular stone seal with rounded corners, photographed face-on on a grey card mount. Its face has raised, worn shapes: a curved band across the upper part, a diagonal ridge, a rounded form at the right and a horizontal ridge along the lower edge. Handwriting appears along the bottom edge of the card.

Description, scan 2: A rectangular stone seal photographed alone against a plain grey mount. Its face is dark with lighter worn areas, showing an engraved design with a curved band on the right and an arched shape with a diagonal line in the lower centre. The edges look rough and the engraving is faint, so the detail is hard to read in this photograph.
