| The polished ‘gem’ stone beads [100.40(E,F,G,H,I,K)HD and 100.41(B,C,E,F,H)HD] in this colorful group (a cast bronze bead is included), put in an 11-photo lot for convenience but each offered individually, are known because of their shape as ‘donut’ seals. Attributed to the Sassanian Empire, c.300-600AD and found in the western regions of Afghanistan during the Russian occupation, each of the seals is uniquely incised with an image of man, beast, or revered symbol. Stone types in this group include agate, bloodstone, bronze, carnelian, chalcedony, and hematite. Prices range from $95 to $125. The millimeter size (mm) shown on photo is the greatest length from side to side. Select by inventory number shown on the photograph. Any that have been sold will be so-marked on the appropriate photo. A purchase comes with a small display card, a map of Afghanistan highlighting the general area in which the seals were found, and a certificate guaranteeing authenticity. Please refer to any seal of interest by first the Trocadero Number and then the Inventory Number shown on the photo for the seal.
