Hey Diggers,
Yesterday I got a bucket list item at the 1600's siege site. My very first wax seal matrix. It's actually made of tombac and quite heavy. The seal itself appears to be romantic in nature so maybe this one was used by a French soldier writing letters to his wife or sweetheart. I interpret the crown as representing France and of course the flying heart is sending his love. I flipped the image so if anyone can translate the words that would be amazing! Thanks for looking and HH, Dave.
