Hello,
This is not a numismatic item but a lead seal from (post-)medieval times, and I’m not sure if anyone here recognizes it but thought I’d give it a shot! I think I’ve seen this horse-before-flag design somewhere else, maybe on another seal or coin. So it may be a common coat of arms or whatever it is called. Does anyone know?

It reminds me a little of Visby, but then it should've been an aries.

Sorry for forgetting to respond...
That one seems similar! To think of it, I’m not even 100% certain that this is a horse. I wonder if there’s a way to search for a certain coat of arms...
