Title
Lead papal bulla of Pope Innocent IV (1243-54).
Description
English: Lead papal bulla of Pope Innocent IV (1243-54).

One face bears the conventional stamped busts of Saints Peter and Paul both within drop-shaped pelleted borders, possibly haloes. On the left, St Paul's beard is portrayed as being long, straight and pointed, while his hair is straight and swept back. On the right, Peter looks left with his more rounded hair and beard both formed of pellets. Between the two is a crozier. Above is the inscription: 'SPA SPE' (abbreviations for St Paul and St Peter). On the reverse are the words INNOCENTIVS PP IIII. The PP stands for Pastor Pastorum, meaning shepherd of the shepherds. Both faces are edged with a circle of pellets.

The bulla is slightly bent. It is not quite circular in plan, measuring 40 x 44mm.
