This has a flat round face and a sharply rising back to an oval pierced handle. The design on the face is a linear pattern within a rim: two crescents based on the edge, a curling line also starting from the edge, and a single short stroke likewise from the edge.

It is generally well preserved, but one side of the base appears to have been rubbed off.'; R-765) 'A Stamp Seal of Bronze, 19 x 19 x 25 mm. This has a round flat face and sides which rise sharply and curve inwards to a pierced oval handle. The design on the face consists of a S-shape and two V-shapes, one each side. This comes from west central Asia and dates to c. 2100-1800 B.C. It is covered with incrustation which could be removed, but generally it is good condition.'; T-519) 'A Stamp Seal of Bronze, 13 x 13 x 24.5 mm.

The design on the face is somewhat worn down.'; V-384) 'A Stamp Seal of Bronze, 19 x 17 x 18 mm.

This comes from west central Asia and dates to c. 2300-2000 B.C. It is covered with thick incrustation, which could be removed, but it appears that the metal beneath is sound.'; V-312) 'A Stamp Seal of Bronze, 18 x 19 x 19 x 18 mm. This bears the shape of the design, with flat face surrounded by a rim, and flat back on which is mounted a stalk handle with suspension loop. The design is a trefoil.
