Description: | Large copper-alloy signet ring. The hoop in cross-section is a rounded D-shape, and a minimum of 3 x 3 mm. It flares very gently to the shoulders, and then more sharply to a sub-rectangular bezel. The bezel is 11 mm wide, and is decorated with an engraved rectangle with rounded corners. Within this is a crowned initial T, engraved in reverse so that it will be the right way round on an impression. 25.5 mm wide and 28 mm from bezel to base. It weighs 9.22g and dates to the 15th or early 16th century.
