It has a plain rectangular sectioned band, which has small rectangular shoulders with linear incisions running across it. These sit either side of an integral rectangular plate which holds the bezel.The object dates to the 12th or 13th century and has close parallels, particularly 2004 T133, 2004T 495 and 2006 T63.
