A four-disc alnage seal from the reign of James I.
From Paul Cannon, "This seal is now on PAS see IOW-4F05C9. I think I can also see part of the word SEARCHED around the letter D. With regard to its place can I suggest [DO]RSE[T]. There really isn't space for much else. There are others with just the county name around the ligature PW see PAS IOW-550FC9 & PAS SUR-71F3A4."
