Description: | A corroded copper-alloy finger ring of probable Roman date. Finger rings are notoriously difficult to date, but the general form of this piece is consistent with a Roman date.
The hoop has a horizontal central groove on the outer face; this groove has a repeating pattern of small, closely-spaced punched dots and retains traces of gilding. The inner face of the ring is flat and plain. It measures 15.1mm in diameter, 4.4mm high and 0.9mm thick. The weight is 1.28g. | 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
