Title: Help needed to identify Lead Seals
Post by: Kath D2 on June 07, 2022, 03:08:41 pm

Another one in the group of lead seals that we need help in identifying.  I will be posting them one at a time here.

Any assistance with any information on these coins would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

Hi Kath.  I searched for "Webb & Co Lead Seal" and found this!

Seed Merchants, Webb & Sons Seal
WEBB & SONS SALTNEY CHESTER (around), MANURE MANFRS (across in two lines)
REGISTERED TRADE MARK, around a crowned emblem, which has WEBBS across the top.

Not an exact match, but close.  There are a number of similar seals from this company.  Bagseals.org is a pretty neat site.  You can search their gallery for "Webb & Sons".  I have no idea about the value.  Good luck!

Hi,

It isn't "cistered" but rather "registered trademark" on that side. 20th century, c. 1902-1952, the crown on top of the design is a male crown in British regal iconography. I see someone beat me to it and with better details.

Regards,

Mauseus
