Broad period: MODERN
County: Cheshire West and Chester
Workflow stage: Published

As the find dates later than 1707, and does not contain the minimum of 10% precious metal necessary to qualify as Treasure, it falls outside the provisions of the Treasure Act 1996.

Brian Williams from the British Dental Association Museum advises that 'it would appear to have fractured in the mid-line so originally there may have been more gold, of a similar size/shape, on the right side making the complete structure horse-shoe shaped. Judging by the surface shapes (circles) we think the structure is cast gold and dental casting didn't become available until the early 1900's. To mask the gold, much of the surface would have been covered in Vucanite (a hardened rubber material) made by the Goodyear Rubber Co…
