Dinnes was a consulting veterinarian for the 1983 adventure film "The Golden Seal". The Emperor then granted Kelsang Gyatso a golden seal of authority. It was named the "Golden Bull" for the golden seal it carried. The golden seal was engraved in three printing runs. It is distinct from an imperial document bearing a golden seal, a chrysobull ("chrysoboullon sigillion"). The 5th Dalai Lama wanted to use the golden seal of authority right away.
