German, Salt Tax, Bernburg, DK Seals
German, Salt Tax, Bernburg, DK Seals, Image & Found by Peter van Lierop.
Found in Noord Brabant, Netherlands, 14mm, c 4.4g.
DK // crossed hammers both sides have a crimped border on the middle one, the outer two are plain
Three seals of similar type.
From Steen Agersø, "I am quite sure that the lead seal is from a German salt sack.
I found this from the saltworks SOLVAYHALL at Bernburg in Sachsen-Anhalt ..
Today Bernburger Salz.
The "D K" could stand for "Deutsches Kali-Salz", but that's just a guess. It would be a salt-tax-seal I think. ... see Kali und Salz AG in Bernburg, Germany; K&S AG."
See BSG.BS.01231 for a similar seal.
