Description: | Fragment of large copper-alloy ring, just possibly part of a late Iron Age terret. It is circular in cross-section, and both ends are broken (worn breaks); one end is wider (8 mm in diameter) and it then tapers smoothly to the other (6.5 mm in diameter). The fragment is 40 mm long and represents nearly a fifth of a circle c. 80 mm in diameter. The ring looks old; it has a dark brown patina which is missing in patches to reveal pale green stable corrosion. If it were a terret, it would be a very large one. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Geake, Helen - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
