Object type: SEAL
Broad period: MODERN
County: Isle of Wight
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A complete Modern lead alloy bag seal, c.AD 1914-1937.
The seal for guano fertiliser is roughly circular in shape with incomplete edges, it is heavily worn on both sides, with some of the detail missing.
Obverse: ANG[LO CONTINENTAL] / [LATE OHLENDORFF] / [...]
Reverse: [T]RADE / MARK, cornocopia in centre
It is unclear whether this seal still shows the Ohlendorff name, which would help to date the seal as later just the cornucopia trademark remained. Bailey (2000) illustrates a similar example on page 19, Fig.16.

Object type: CHAIN
Broad period: MODERN
County: Lancashire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A small chain comprising two silver links. Both links are square in plan. One is a slight D section, and plain, and both ends have been cut unevenly. It may be that this is not a link but a remnant of silver which has been bent into shape to loop with the other. The second link is joined and it is difficult to see where this join is, which makes the first link all the more likely not to be part of the original chain. This second link is highly decorated, with a wave and dot pattern on a background of parallel lines, running perpendicular to the edges of the link. This link has wea…
