Hello. I am looking for information regarding lead seals and arms symbolism.
Any and all comments would be appreciated.

1. I am looking for information regarding the various uses of lead seals in
the 16th and 17th centuries, ie, cloth seals attached to textiles indicating
city of origin, seals identifying bales of cargo, etc...

2. I am looking for an interpretation of the components of the coat of arms
representing Harleem, Netherlands circa 1600's: Cross, Sword, and Stars.

Thank you.
