A complete but worn copper alloy jetton piedfort of the Tournai three circles type dating to C AD 1497-1521. The legend on the obverse is mostly illegible but the last word appears to be MARIA. The reverse depicts a broad ended cross patty with a flower in each angle. The legend here is difficult to decipher and may be nonsensical, although may be a variation on IIIATER DEI IIIEIIIEIITO IIIEI (MATER DEI MEMENTO MEI - Mother of God remember me) or something similar. cf. Mitchiner 1988:211 no. 607. A number of latter medieval tournai jettons appear to be two or three time the weight …

Description:  A complete but squashed silver finger ring dating to the 12th century AD. The ring would have originally been a circular hoop made of a sub-rectangular strip of silver metal with a rectangular cross section, although it has been squashed into a sub-rectangular strip. The width of the hoop is not regular. At its widest point, which was possibly the ring’s flat bezel, it is c.0.9mm wide. It then narrows from this to a minimum width of c.0.4mm. The ring is squashed so that the points of maximum and minimum width are placed close to the centre of the flattened st…
