Description: | Cast copper alloy finger ring of Roman date. The hoop and particularly the bezel is comparatively thin for Roman rings. The hoop is plain and expands towards the bezel. The oval intaglio or glass setting is missing and was glued to the surface of the bezel, rather than being set within a recessed cell. The intaglio was surrounded by a faceted border on the ring, and elsewhere is plain. The ring has some distortion in the hoop.
