  • Devotional badge in the form of the Agnus Dei (Lamb of God). The head is surrounded by a halo. The Lamb looks backwards towards a cross-staff bearing a banner with a cross and holds the staff with one of its front feet, which is held up. This was probably not a pilgrim souvenir from a particular shrine but is more likely to have been worn as an aid to devotion.
