Description: | A copper-alloy finger-ring with a seemingly plain bezel, probably of post-medieval date. The slightly raised, flat sub-oval bezel is plain but slightly scratched and with a patch of corrosion product (11.0 by 10.05 by 1.9mm). The sides of the bezel that follow the sides the hoop are flattened; the other sides are rounded. From the shoulders the hoop curves round in a regular circle. The hoop narrows from below the bezel (W.: c. 9.1mm), gradually, to 4.6mm at the base. The hoop is also plain. The internal surface is flat; the hoop has a low D-shaped cross-section. The ring has the following internal dimensions: 17.0 by 15.95mm. There is a crack at the base of the hoop, which is also chipped. The artefact has a dark-grey patina with some small patches of light-green corrosion product, plus the larger patch on the bezel mentioned above.
