FINGER RING

Unique ID: ESS-E8E363

Object type certainty: Certain
Workflow status: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation

A Post-Medieval gold finger-ring, rectangular in section. On the interior of the hoop the number 54 is visible accompanied by a stamped mark which is illegible. The outside of the hoop is decorated with a series of vertical and horizontal lines.

Notes:

There is insufficient evidence to confirm that this finger-ring is over 300 years old and therefore it does not meet the stipulations of the Treasure Act 1996.
