The inner discs from a four-disc alnage seal for Yorkshire, COM EBOR - County of Yorkshire in post medieval abbreviated Latin. The initials probably stand for the alnager / searcher. These types of seals are usually dated to the early 17th century.

See p.143, MOL 78.227/15, Elton, Cloth Seals, Archaeopress, 20017.

See also PAS SF-5C779E, which shows that an outer disc was probably stamped with the legend [SE]RCHED.
