Description: | Probably Late Iron Age or Roman copper alloy ring, part of which has started to corrode. It is 16.1mm in diameter (internal 11.5mm) and stands 5mm high. It is of pointed-oval section. The chunky style and the feel of the metal suggest this is of earlier date. It is also rather well-made compared to later medieval and post medieval rings, which are flatter and show tooling marks. Weighs 1.91g. | 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: | -800
