The incomplete handle of the spoon has a square cross section with chamfered corners measuring 3.4mm x 3.4mm.

At the complete end of the shaft, the shaft tapers slightly to 2.5mm x 2.7mm before expanding again to form the decora…

Description: Silver ring similar to Henig Type X. D-shaped in profile with wide shoulders which taper to a narrow band. It is crudely made with a roughened and heavily indented surface.

The flattened bezel has a central depression where a relief figure of the god Aesculapius has been impressed into the metal. The figure is simplistic and somewhat crudely rendered: the god wears a calf-length tunic, his head is turned to the left…
