Title
cloth seal
Description
English: A complete lead cloth seal. One side has three feathers through a coronet, with 1640 beneath. The opposite side has a ship with lettering or numbers obscured beneath.

The following comments have been very gratefully recieved, via the database Comments function, from Paul Cannon: "For an alnage seal with three feathers (plumes) within a coronet see <a href="http://www.bagseals.org/gallery/main.php?g2_itemId=2985">http://www.bagseals.org/gallery/main.php?g2_itemId=2985</a> . For others on the PAS database see NMS-F2EF65 (a Taunton cloth seal of (16)80); SUR-2CE302 & LON-D19EA7 (both are alnage seals also with portraits of George I). See also Geoff Egan, Lead Cloth Seals and Related Items in the British Museum Museum (1994); fig 28 no. 165 & p69. Note: The Prince of Wales bears also another distinguished mark of honour, viz. a plume of three white ostrich feathers, issuing through the rim of the royal coronet with the motto Ich dien on a scroll entwined at the bottom of the feathers".
