Description: | A Roman silver finger ring bearing the abbreviation 'TOT' on the bezel. The hoop is chunky, with broad shoulders and a raised circular bezel. The perimeter of the bezel is decorated with short incised lines. A lozenge-shaped raised panel is located on the circular bezel. This also has a notched perimeter, with a lozenge-shaped line bounding the notches on the inside. The central field bears the letters TOT; both letter T's are serrifed. The abbreviation TOT is for the Celtic god-name Totatis or Toutatis. TOT rings are well known in the East Midlands, especially in Lincolnshire.
