Danish, Santhal Mission Seal
Santhal Mission Seal, Image & Found by John Kristensen.
Found in Denmark, 11mm.
Curved around one side are the letters SANTH[A]L * and around the other side is [M]ISSION *
More from the finder, "Santhal Mission. (the H in santhal gives the date on seal) http://www.cmfchennai.com/mission_among_poorandtribals.htm You can google the mission, and check dates.. I think they changed the spelling in mid 1800."
Lars Skrefsrud and Hans Peter Boerreson formed the Santal Mission sometime before 1890 when it had amassed 6,000 baptized church members.
