Description: | An incomplete cast copper-alloy finger ring of medieval date. The ring is a signet ring with a flat, rectangular bevel. The hoop of the ring is of 'D-shaped' section and is broken at about half of its size. The upper surface of the bezel is decorated with an incised oval within which is the letter 'W' surmounted by a simple crown. It is very similar to SF-DBB375 (and references therin), which has the same 'W' decoration. It is likely to date to the period between 1400 and 1600. It measures 24.75mm in length, 11.69mm in width, 3.19mm in thickness and weighs 5.10g.
