Silver finger ring. This find went through the Treasure process but was declared not treasure. Description: The ring consists of a hoop of plano-convex section which expands at the front to form a slightly ovoid bezel. The latter is punch-incised with three letters, possibly to be read in reverse order as the last on the right appears to be a reversed 'G'. The first letter is a 'T' and the central one is a vertical line with a slash through it, forming a rune-like character, although it is uncertain if it was intended to represent a rune as such, or some other letter. On the righ…

Gold Post Medieval mourning ring dating to 1727. It is inscribed in the inside of the ring with 'Mary Normandy ob 9 Jan 1727 cet 55' The outside of the ring is highly decorated with black enamel. Firstly there is a skeleton. Below the skeleton is a crossed shovel and pick. Next there is an hour glass. All of these pictures symbolise death and the end of time/life. Below this is an open book with the words 'MEMENTO MORI' written on the 2 pages. This means a memento of death. There is an X below the word MORI which just appears to be to fill space.
