Description: | A copper-alloy finger ring of uncertain date. The lack of any diagnostic features makes this piece very difficult to date. Such rings were worn from the Roman period right up to the modern era.
The ring has a hoop of large diameter and was probably made for a man. The hoop is of D-shaped section and has no decoration. A vertical mark visible on the inner face of the ring may indicate that the hoop was enlarged at some point. The object is heavily worn and corroded. It measures 23.8mm in diameter, 3.2mm high and 1.2mm thick. The weight is 1.60g. | 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: | 1
