The general appearance is consistant with cloth seals from the Flanders area (Belgium).
Michel Royer has found a better example of this seal on Nordétection, L'Original
LE FORUM SUR LA DETECTION AU NORD DE PARIS, which identifies it as being a seal from Armentieres. He also pointed out that the crescent structure is found on many tubular seals. A not so good example can be seen on this Gallery - BSG.CS.01067, found in Portugal.
