Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A gold finger ring with no decoration or hallmarks. The band is slightly D-shaped in cross-section and has suffered some damage. It is unclear what date this ring is, however a post-medieval to modern date might be appropriate. The lack of hall marks may suggest it is foreign. The finger ring is undiagnostic in terms of date and therefore cannot be classified as treasure under the 1996 Treasure Act.

A complete gold finger ring of probably Post Medieval to Modern date consisting of a simple hoop with a D shaped section. The outer face is decorated with six pairs of transverse grooves which are V shaped in section. The inner face is bevelled along one edge. There are no maker's marks or hallmarks making the ring very difficult to date. Discussion: This finger ring is fairly undiagnostic though a Post Medieval to Modern date seems most likely. It is impossible to certify that it was deposited prior to 1712 as stipulated in the 1996 Treasure Act, thus it should not be regarded as T…
