Description: | Silver finger ring fragment. Cast fragment from a finger ring with narrow band expanding towards the position of a flat bezel with incised line decoration: two slashes marking the edge of the bezel and three more running across it. The bezel appears to have been cut vertically across the middle; if so, this could hint at its Viking-Age reduction to hacksilver. The mass is close to one pennyweight. Now abraded and crumpled. Suggested date: Unknown, 43-1100. In view of the suspected date and material, this object is to be submitted to the Treasure process, ref 2014 T537.Length (as found): 15.1mm, Width: 11.5mm, Thickness: 1.6mm, Weight: 1.34gms.
