made an incredible surface find that I have to share with you. It is an early 1800's jewelry in gold, shaped like seal matrix. weight is 18.9 grams. I also find a Viking-time ax and weight-weight as well as some silver coins.

Very nice, it's a 'fob watch seal', like you say jewelry & not functional. (went on the fob watch chain)

I've never had a solid gold version. Special find - CONGRATS

I have found several such seal stamps, without any barking or engraved letters before too, then in cheap metal. It is clear that these have to be fashionable to use as a jewelry..
