Object type: FINGER RING
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Greater London Authority
Workflow stage: Published Find published
A gold object, probably a distorted finger ring of uncertain date. Curator's report: A strip of bright yellow pitted gold that has been bent six times forming three rough (un-unintended) loops. The edges of some sections appear to have been worked, being slightly rounded. Discussion: This strip of gold is long enough to have fitted round a small finger but there are no diagnostic features that could provide a date. Conclusion: Due to the undiagnostic nature of the find it can not be securely dated to pre-1708 and as such falls outside the provisions of the Treasure Act 1996 …

A gold finger ring of uncertain date. It has a plain circular band that is sub-circular in section with a flat inner edge. The inner edge has several indentations and pock marks, presumably caused during production, but apparently no maker's marks or hallmarks. The ring measures 17.36mm in internal diameter, 22.84mm in external diameter, and weighs 8.58g. This plain gold ring is a beach find from close to a known Roman site. It is therefore possible that it could date to any time from the Roman period onwards. It was found over 20 years ago and is a single stray find, it therefore doe…

An undatable (but probably Late Post-Medieval or Modern) gold ring, possibly a finger-ring or strap fitting, measuring 19.12mm in diameter (internal 16.72mm) and weighing 1.6g. The ring is rectangular in cross-section with signs of wear at opposing points, one one side only. I think the object is undiagnostic - the section is odd and this may not be a ring (Judy Rudoe pers.comm.)

A complete but distorted gold probable finger ring. Consisting of a simple hoop with a rectangular section. The outer face is smooth however in one area there are tiny traces of possible vertical grooves, these may be original decoration or due to damage/wear, they are extremely faint. Discussion: This finger ring is very undiagnostic and could possibly be Roman or later in date, but it is impossible to certify that it was deposited prior to 1708 as stipulated in the Treasure Act. Dimensions: Measuring 17.16mm by 15.33mm externally and 15.53mm by 13.61mm internally, the hoop is …

Gold finger ring consisting of a sub-circular sectioned hoop without bezel. There is no decoration, inscription, maker's mark or hall mark. Cf. an example from Suffolk (PAS SF-FCF822).

Description: Misshapen small plain gold finger-ring. The hoop is a low D-shape in cross-section, with the interior flat or very slightly convex and the exterior more distinctly convex. Date: There is no inner inscription or makers mark on the ring, therefore it is not possible to date this finger-ring. The undiagnostic nature of this find makes it impossible to date to pre-1709 and as such it falls outside the provisions of the Treasure Act 1996. Caroline Barton The British Museum 28/01/2010

A finger ring examined under the Treasure Act by the British Museum. Surface metal analysis conducted at the British Museum indicated an approximate gold content for the ring of 50% and silver content of approximately 47%; it weighs 4.78 grams. The ring has a flat, ovoid bezel drawn out at the shoulders into two narrow, wiry strips tapering to points, which were originally wound together to form the hoop, but are now separated; diameter of bezel, 20 mm (max). The decoration of the bezel appears to have been cast (rather than punched as would be usual on Viking-period rings) and consis…

?BA gold finger-ring. The ring is plain though decorated with a pinched midrib running around its circumference. The midrib is beaten flat in some places, and in others has formed a break. The surface is not smooth although the quality of the metal is very good. Diam 20mm. Thickness less than 0.5mm. Width of band 7-8mm. Weighs 2.08g. The ring was squashed when found, and was taken to a jeweller who is responsible for its present circular shape. The jeweller perfomed the acid test and determined the ring is 24ct.
