Description: | A small strip of bronze 31mm long and 3mm wide, 1mm thick, plain on the back and edges but carrying a raised pattern of V-shaped motifs successively along the upper side, almost but not quite like a chevron pattern. If these are merely decorative, the fragment may be part of a mediaeval or post-mediaeval finger ring of simple kind. Nonetheless the pattern is sufficiently well raised to suggest other possibilities, such as for instance a die for stamping or hammering upon sheet metal? | Format: | text/html | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ | Publisher: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Rights holder: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Subjects: | archaeology | Temporal: | 410
