Large, medieval Spanish (Castile and Leon), medallic lead seal (sello) of Juan I, 1379-1390. 146.52 grams, 55 mm. Crude yet interesting thick lead seal depicting a knight on horseback with a lance on one side while the other side shows the castles-and-lions; the legends in Gothic lettering are somewhat legible. Despite the marks and bends in the softer lead, this is an impressive survivor of a medieval royal seal with remnants of the string still visible inside.
