「右夫人璽」龜鈕金印，西漢(The Imperial Golden "Seal of Madam You" with a Turtle Knob, Western Han)
此印鈕為龜形，刻有細魚鱗紋﹔印面為方形，刻有篆體「右夫人璽」四字。南越王墓中出土的四枚夫人印，只有此枚以金製，而中國又以右為尊，故推論「右夫人」為眾妃之首。
The knob of this seal is a turtle; designs that resemble fish scales were carved onto the seal. The print side is square and the characters you fu ren xi (Imperial seal of Madam You) were carved onto it. Four madam's seals were unearthed from the Mausoleum of Nanyue King, but only this one was made of gold. You, which means the right side, has always been regarded as ranking higher in China. "Madam You" is believed to be the head concubine.
