A seal is to show that an instrument was executed in a formal manner. At early common law sealing legal documents was of great legal significance. A promise under seal was binding by virtue of the seal. Today under most statutes any stamp, wafer, mark, scroll, or impression made, adopted, and affixed, is adequate. The printed word "seal", or "l. s. ", is sufficient. 2, record 1, English, - seal

Au début de la période du droit coutumier, l'apposition du sceau sur les actes revêtait une grande importance au point de vue juridique. Une promesse ainsi scellée était irrévocable. De nos jours, d'après la plupart des lois, il suffit d'adopter ou d'apposer un timbre, un cachet, une empreinte, ou de faire une marque ou une impression. L'inscription du mot «sceau» ou de «l.s.» («locus sigilli», place du sceau) suffit également. 4, record 1, French, - sceau
