Imperial postal lead for ID
« on: January 03, 2013, 08:13:45 am »
Hi all;
I post this Postal lead pb 23 x 17 x 3 mm-W;8,1g-12h-which looks as Imperial lead for me with  facing bust of Justinian I??[to be confirmed?], wearing crown with plume? and pendants and chlamys.Marginal legend.R/Mother of God ?Mary? holding Jesus in her breast with cross in r.field.
Thanks in advance for all your help & comments

The bust looks like either Justinian I or Justin II, though with no clear legend visible I can't be too sure

Hi,
This seal is not Justinian or Justin II. This is Maurice Tiberius (582-602). Good hit  +++. Congratulations .
