Identified by ArcheoVlog Łukasz Połczyński - p.325 & 336 no.2 fig.30, Polish, Silesian and Local Cloth Seals from Excavations in Gdańsk, Poland, Łukasz Połczyński, Magdalena Przymorska-Sztuczka, Open Archaeology 2019; 5: 309–339., "The former arms of Żagań. The discussed collection also includes one seal from Żagań (former Sagan) that is incomplete (Fig. 30.2).
The complete obverse disc represents the gate of a town with two towers, and in the gate the letter ‘S’. This
was the former coat of arms of Żagań. The reverse disc is missing but the original design is still imprinted
on the flattened rivet showing a partial inscription: (SA)GA(N).
Cloth seals from Żagań are quite a common find in Pomerania. Several items comes from Stargard
(Majewski, 2014; Majewski & Stań, 2015; Majewski, Stań & Szeremeta, 2016; Majewski, Śnieżko, &
Wojciechowski, 2017).
The seal can be only broadly dated to the sixteenth-seventeenth century (Maćkowski, 2016a), but if
one takes into account the almost complete destruction of the town during the Thirty Years’ War and the
resulting migration, we can narrow down the dating of this seal with caution to the period before the 1630s."
