description <p>We present in the following four interesting unpublished artifacts found during archaeological excavations (2012-2018) in the legionary fortress and the <em>canabae</em> of <em>legio V Macedonica</em> in Potaissa (today Turda, Cluj County, Romania). All are military lead sealings. Two of them have the print in negative of LVM, placed in a cartridge. We extended the discussion by analyzing some analogies from the Roman Empire. We end our short contribution trying to explain the presence of such artifacts in Potaissa.</p>
