Description: | Roman copper alloy finger ring, missing its setting. It is similar to Henig Type VIII but badly cast, the area for the setting being lop-sided and missing an edge. The shoulders are triangular in shape and extend at an angle from the bezel. Below the shoulder is another angled section, being almost vertical if the finger ring is viewed sideways on with the bezel to the top. Below this the hoop is curved. The hoop is D-shaped in section and the finger ring has a rather squashed, anglular look about it. Internal measurements are 16x13mm. Much of the original patina is missing. Late Roman.
