Title
Papal bulla- Innocent IV- DUR-5EAB65
Description
English: A Medieval lead Papal bulla of Pope Innocent IV, whose papacy lasted from 1243 to 1254 AD.

The obverse depicts the faces of St Peter and St Paul below the inscription [SPAS]P[E] (SPA = Sanctus Paulus, SPE = Sanctus Petrus), all of which are surrounded by a beaded border, flanking the outside edge of the bulla. St. Paul is seen on the left looking right, with a long pointed beard, and St. Peter is on the right facing left, with a rounded face and beard and hair formed from pellets. Each is within a C or backwards-C beaded border, joined to the main. This follows a set formula, not all of the detail is visible on this example due to wear

The reverse bears the legend INNO/CENTIVS/.PP.IIII. , within a beaded border. There is an omega above the 'PP', which is an abbreviation of pastor pastorum - meaning shepherd of the shepherds. The surface of the bulla has a well developed cream coloured patination.
