Provenance:
Acquired by Pierpont Morgan sometime between 1885 and 1908.
Notes:
"Like the other seals made of copper or bronze (1086, 1111, 1112), this piece may have originated in Asia Minor. However, it is not corroded like the others, and its lines are sharper; therefore it is possibly not genuine."--Porada, CANES, p. 157
