County: Essex
Workflow stage: Published
TREASURE CASE 2012 T182 Finger ring fragment
Date: Undiagnostic
Description: fragment of a silver-gilt finger-ring, a broad flat band incised on exterior with a double row of dots.
Dimensions: Weight: 1.3g
Length: 20.81mm
Width: 5.90mm
Thickness: 0.73mm
Discussion: this ring fragment is undiagnostic in nature and cannot be securely dated to a specific period. Compare PAS-FFCC17.
Due to the undiagnostic nature of the find it cannot be securely dated to pre-1712 and as such falls outside the provisions of the Treasure Act 1996.

Object type: COIN
Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: Norfolk
Workflow stage: Published
A post medieval silver threepence of Charles II dating to c.1664-70. This has been gilded and pierced at the 12 o'clock position on the obverse. Clearly the intention was that the coin might serve as a pendant. The display of the king's head in this way may well also have had an ideological element. This adaptation of the coin would, in all probability, have been carried out shortly after the coin's issue.
Coin issued c.1664-70, adaptation in the late 1660s or 1670s.
18mm diameter, weight 1.38g.
