Description: | Incomplete copper alloy finger ring of probable Post Medieval date (1500 AD - 1800 AD). Length 26mm, width 12mm and 2mm thick. Weight 3.33g.The lower portion of the hoop is broken and missing and the surviving sections of the hoop are bent outwards from the bezel. The face of the flat oval bezel (18mm x 12mm) has an oval groove at its periphery within which is an ?engraved arrow motif on the longitudinal centre-line. Viewing the ring with the point of the arrow at the top there is an ?engraved letter "C " to the left side of the arrow and an ?engraved letter "O" to the right of the arrow. The shoulders are plain and taper abruptly to form a simple flat hoop. The metal is a brownish/purple colour and there is a large deposit of copper carbonate on the underside of the bezel.
