A corroded Post Medieval-Modern iron single loop trapezoidal buckle, c.AD 1750-1970.

The shorter edge retains a sheet iron roller.

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.

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.
