Description: | A fragment of a copper alloy finger ring, of probable Post-Medieval date, the bezel and part of the hoop survives. The hoop has a D shaped section and only about 15-20% survives to one side of the bezel. The bezel is square and is flat on the reverse. The front is convex and made of four trapezoidal panels which meet in the centre of the bezel in a circular depression, probably to hold a gem or other decorative setting which no longer survives. The fragment measures 15.4mm long, 7.1mm wide, 3.6mm in thickness and weighs 0.56g.HAMP-8F5DD0 is similar but with the central setting reaching all the way through the bezel rather than just a depression, as on this example.
