One side reads: (N) P / ІВІ2К / [1](7) 88" (The 7 is an upside down 2). NP stands for Narva (Estonia), the place of export probably, the next row is codified data about the producer, the then the date. There are three stars below and two among the letters. The other side has: "(N)Д / М•ЛЕВ / ШЕВЬ / H37 with 2 stars and 3 pellets among the letters. This is likely to be the title, initial and surname of the control officer with a reference number (H means number like No. in English). It has a diameter of 23.74mm, thickness 4.81mm, weight 12.14g. Die axis 2o'clock. Seals like these were used to monitor the quality of flax and hemp originating in Russia in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. |
