Take a piece of paper and put it over the seal where it has writing and take a pencil and do a rubbing. to do a rubbing use the lead of the pencil not the point or a crayon, but turn it sideways and it will pick up the raised areas which will be the lettering and maybe we can figure out what it says. Just Google how to do a leaf rubbing if you can't figure out what I am trying to say.
