Title
Medieval : Papal Bulla
Description
English: An incomplete cast lead Papal Bulla of an uncertain Pope. Roughly one quarter of the bulla remains one side of which is heavily worn rendering it illegible and the other is stamped with the letters "RI" within a beaded border.

Papal Bulla acted as seals on official Papal documents to authenticate their provenance and authority.

The metal is a mid greyish-white colour and is extremely worn. The bulla is 29.4mm long, 18.6mm wide, 4.6mm thick and weighs 9.7g.
