Cloth Seal, Suffolk, Alnage, ToH Ligature, Image & Found by Derfel.
Found on Thames Foreshore, 12mm.
Missing // ToH ligature, COMSVFOL around, square border // thistle, square border // incomplete
See Egan, G., 1987, seal 2360 A-D, 4827 & 4871, p.221. These have a T mounted on the horizontal bar of the H with a small o on the vertical of the T as can be seen on the second disc of this seal. Egan describes it as a mark and does not associate it with the TH / HT alnager with a similar ligature known from Essex, Surrey and Kent seals. The seals listed by Egan all show the same SVFOL (COMSVFOL) without the K and have a thistle on the third disc.
