Wax impression of about half of the first Great Seal of New South Wales, diameter approx. 110mms, by design approved by George III in August 1790. The part Latin inscription from Virgil draws the analogy between the foundation of Rome by a band of robbers and the settling of the new colony of New South Wales by convicts.

The design is well known as the 'Sydney View' of the first 1850 issue of postage stamps in NSW. This seal was used from 1791-1817 (see Gullick, W.

The seal, has attached a portion of a ribbon, it is broken and only a large fragment (about 40%) or the original seal survives, good and extremely rare.
