I'd say that would be very difficult to prove, though many occult minds like to believe these symbols ancient. Many of these magickal alphabets that are not from actual languages don't really appear in writing until the 15th or 16th centuries.
BTW, while certainly talismanic and i suppose technically a "seal" i would not refer to this as one of Solomon's seals. Originally Solomon's Seal was said to be a signet ring used to command spirits and demons. There have been many variations of the seal depicted over the centuries, most often in disk form as a medallion and featuring either the 6-pointed star of the pentagram.
