The metallic representation of the seal used in stamping the original document is generally found, as indicated above, affixed to the top or left margin of single plates or to the ring holding several plates of a charter together. These seals sometimes exhibit the representation of one or more emblems forming the royal crest or insignia or coat-of-arms. Sometimes legends take the place of the emblem, the seals of some royal families having a metrical legend without any emblem. Most of the royal seals affixed to charters, however, contain both a legend and one or more emblems.
