Description: | Post-Medieval gold posy ring, a small thin gold hoop, inscribed inside 'A small rememberance' with maker's mark R over W in a square shield. This mark does not occur on any of the BritishMuseum rings and is not one that we have identified. Given that this ring has no other datable features, it is not possible to confirm that the ring is more than 300 years old.Dimensions:Weight: 2.5 gDiameter: 23 mmThe find cannot be securely dated to pre-1709 and as such falls outside the provisions of the Treasure Act 1996.Judy RudoeCurator of Renaissance & Later CollectionsDepartment of Prehistory & EuropeThe BritishMuseum
