Description: | A possible lead alloy unidentified object, consisting of a circular hoop, 11mm in external diameter and 6mm in internal diameter, with an oval bezel, 1mm in length and 8mm in width, which has a circular disc in its centre, 8mm in diameter, with a circular hole through the centre of this, measuring 2.3mm in diameter. The form of this object is similar to finger rings but it is too small to have functioned as one. It is possible that it could be a pilgrim souvenir of some kind but no parallel could be found of a similar size. It is likely to be medieval or later in date. | 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: | 1200
