Description: | Roman silver finger ring, bent and misshapen. Originally a circular hoop of rectangular section, swelling to one sharply carinated shoulder and another plain. There is an ovular bezel which is plain and undecorated. The edges of the ring are very crudely finished. Discussion: the ring seems to have been unfinished before loss or discard. Date: c. 2nd to 3rd century AD Note: this item is made substantially of silver and is more than 300 years old, and thus qualifies as treasure as stipulated in the Treasure Act 1996.
