Description: | Corroded and incomplete Roman copper alloy finger ring. The ring has a recessed oval bezel to accommodate a stone, enamel/glass or intaglio which is now missing. On both flanks the bezel tapers smoothly and symmetrically down in width to form the "D" sectioned hoop most of which is missing from old breaks. Only approximately 40% of the ring hoop is extant. Henig type II; circa 1st-3rd century AD.
