Quoting Psalm 26:1
Lot 3278
Uncertain patrikios, last quarter of 7th century. Seal (Lead, 26 mm, 24.12 g, 12 h). +KVPIOC ΦⲰΤΙCMOC MOV ("The Lord is my light") Cruciform monogram P, N, A and Z. Rev. +K, CⲰTHP M૪ THNA ΦⲰB,Θ,COME ("and my Savior; whom shall I fear?") Cruciform monogram ΠATPIKIⲰ. Metcalf, Cyprus 236. Glynias, Prayerful Iconoclasts 20. A well struck and unusually complete example belonging to an interesting group of seals quoting the Psalms. Minor corrosion, otherwise, very fine.

Our seal allows a correction to the reading of the reverse legend in both editions of this seal type. K is not the initial letter of Kyrios, as both editors assumed, but an abbreviation for kai ("and"). The seal's legend continues to quote Psalm 26:1 on its reverse
