Description: | A cast copper alloy harness ring of uncertain date, possibly medieval. The object is circular in plan and varies in cross-section from pentagonal to hexagonal. The surface is worn and uneven and one side of the ring is thinner as a result of wearing against another harness element. The ring has a dark brown patina. It is 26.12mm in diameter and 3.41mm thick. It weighs 5.04gm.Plain rings of such proportions have often been suggested to be Medieval or Post-Medieval harness rings (Geake 2001, 74), though they are typically un-diagnostic. It has a dark brown patina.
