Cloth Seal, Dutch, Leiden, Lion
Cloth Seal, Dutch, Leiden, Lion, Image & Found by Peter van Lierop.
Found in the village of Stiphout, Holland, 22mm, 9.7g.
82 / 41 (scratched) // (crowned?) lion with sword in right paw, ribbon* in left paw
While the lion with sword is common on many Leiden cloth seals it usually uncrowned and has seven arrows in its left paw. This is probably a version of the type holding the arms of Leiden in the left paw via a strap or ribbon, see BSG.CS.01700.
