Enjoy puzzling over it with the first comprehensive lexical analysis:

Une belle empreinte verte pour #LesArmoiriesDuVendredi ! Ce sceau de Conrad d’Urslingen, Schultheiss de #Colmar, date de 1335 et montre ses armoiries de 3 écussons. Malgré quelques bords brisés, c'est une empreinte très nette et vive.
