Seal impression: Medieval

The King (Henry VII) enthroned beneath a triple-arched gothic canopy, wearing a royal cloak fastned on his breast, and a crown of five crosses; in his left hand an orb surmounted by a long cross (crosslet on fine impressions), in his right hand a sceptre bearing a reliquary; beneath his feet a carved corbel; to either side, in a niche with double-arched canopy culminating in tabernacle work and crocketted finials, a shield of arms, a shield of arms: quarterly france (modern) and England, beneath which two facing lions sejant guardant, resting on invected cobels bearing four roses; beneath each corbel, adjacent to the principal corbel, a rose, slipped and leaved; in the further small lateral niches a man of arms bearing a Javelin. The seal may have been engraved by Sir Hugh Brice, master of the mint. It's design is very similar to the fifth seal of Edward IV
