Description: | Copper alloy finger ring. It has the legend MARY on it. Dates to either the late medieval (c1400 to c1500 AD) or the Victorian period (c1837 to c1901 AD). In either case it quite a low quality item. Unusually, the inscription is raised, not incised or impressed. The script is akin to that found on English Medieval coinage. The use of the letter Y probably makes the latter date more likely. It may possibly have been a decorative collar or band from a handle or stick.The diameter is 20mm, width 5mm, thickness 0.5mm, and the weight 0.98g.
