A complete flat oval object, made of lead, and bearing an impression or stamp on one side only. The perimeter appears to be decorated with an inscription. Each letter is rather thick, and no breaks in the inscription are visible. Occasional letters such as 'O' and 'N' can be discerned, but most of the inscription is clipped by the perimeter. This surrounds a circular channel, in which are the larger letters SP, set over a circular indentation. The reverse is irregular and undecorated.
