Description: | A complete silver ring (Finger?) of probable Medieval date (AD 1300-1550). The object is composed of a single rectangular strip of silver recurved inward to create the ring shape. The object is D shaped in section. The outer surface of the object retains some inscribed lettering; those which remain visible are ES with a possible V in Lombardic form. It is likely therefore that the inscription would have read J[ESV]S. The inner surface shows no indication of decoration. The two ends of the ring are not attached and show no indication of an attempt to unite them.
