Description: | A fragment of a cast copper alloy Roman finger ring of Henig Type II. The finger ring hoop has a rounded profile although the remaining section from bezel shoulder into hoop is quite sharp. The bezel had a recessed oval void for the insertion of a stone, and it is likely the stone would have sat almost flush with the upper edge of the void. The insert is now missing. This style of ring dates from between the first and third century AD, although this example may be later in that date range.
