Description: | A Roman probable Finger ring made of copper alloy. The object is sub circular in plan, with a diameter of 23.9mm and is sub rectangular in cross section. It has been decorated with transverse grooves around the whole of the band but the inside is smooth and undecorated. There is no bezel. With a thickness of 3.2mm the edges are slightly worn as demarcated by areas of light green patina but there appears to be no wear to the outer and inner surfaces. It has a dark brown patina, and is shiny, having been treated by the finder. It weighs 7.63 grams. The object appears to be a finger ring event though it is quite chunky. The internal diameter is 17.7mm. Other finger rings with similar decoration are NMS-869307 and SWYOR-3FAA73. Compare also HAMP-7B2F51 and KENT-C5FB46 which is a more delicate example.
