BSG.CS.02112 — Cloth Seal, Devon, Alnage, Crowned Harp, SL ligate

Cloth Seal, Devon, Alnage, Crowned Harp, SL ligate, Image & Found by Mark Spinney.

Blank (rotated) // SL ligate, 2 DEVON around in border of husks // crowned harp in border of husks // blank

A complete four-disk Devon alnage seal for 2d.

The alnager's initials SL or LS have been found on other Devon seals and also on those from Dorset and Hampshire, [Egan, G., 1987, p.80]. See also PAS WMID4922 for an LS ligature on a Somerset alnage seal.

See also BSG.CS.00388 for a Norwich tubular cloth seal with the same ligature but this is probably coincidental, as is the link to the Dutch Den Bosch seal in that record.
