BSG.BS.01997 — German, Salt Tax, Bernburg, DK Seals

Found in Noord Brabant, Netherlands, 14mm, c 4.4g.

DK // crossed hammers both sides have a crimped border on the middle one, the outer two are plain

Three seals of similar type.

From Steen Agersø, "I am quite sure that the lead seal is from a German salt sack. I found this from the saltworks SOLVAYHALL at Bernburg in Sachsen-Anhalt .. Today Bernburger Salz. The "D K" could stand for "Deutsches Kali-Salz", but that's just a guess. It would be a salt-tax-seal I think. ... see Kali und Salz AG in Bernburg, Germany; K&S AG."
