Record ID: YORYM-1B8376
Object type: METAL WORKING DEBRIS
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: North Yorkshire
Workflow stage: Published
The find consists of a crudely cast, thick, slightly curved white metal bar of ovoid section, which has been cut across at both ends; length, 63 mm; weight, 227 g. It is undiagnostic and undatable, so does not qualify as Treasure under the stipulations of the Treasure Act 1996. The British Museum recommended that the Secretary of State should disclaim the Crown's interest in this find and the find was returned to the finder.

Object type: FIGURINE
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Medway
Workflow stage: Published
A cast silver element comprising two figures, a female standing nude with one knee raised, a smaller female figure next to her whose bust ends in a shaft. Broken off at the base. The function of this artefact is uncertain, though it is certainly post 16th Century. The metal (which might be base silver) and facture suggest a relatively recent date. Due to it's undiagnostic nature it is therefore my view that this does not represent Treasure under the terms of the Treasure Act 1996.

Object type: UNIDENTIFIED OBJECT
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Doncaster
Workflow stage: Published
A white metal oval disc which is 27.4mm long, 24mm wide and 2.5mm thick. Most of the edge of the disc is rough and is probably broken. It is also curved so one face is concave and the other convex. On the convex face is a scratched design of a crenellated tower or gateway and beneath it some indistinct markings which may be numbers or letters. The other face is not decorated. The British Museum has not been able to identify or date this object but the analysis of its composition (see below) shows that it is not precious metal and therefore the piece is not Treasure under the Treasure …

Object type: HANDAXE
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Published
A worn, rolled and damaged lithic implement, identified as a Palaeolithic flint axe by the finder. The condition of the object, along with the fact that it is not truly bifacial, makes this identification questionable. The axe is roughly oval is plan and in cross-section, with flakes taken off both dorsal and ventral surfaces. There is some damage around the edge exposing a fresh mid-grey coloured flint. The surface has a reddish-brown patina.

Object type: FINGER RING
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Greater London Authority
Workflow stage: 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 …

Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Hertfordshire
Workflow stage: Published
The find consists of a rough, cylindrical ingot with rounded ends and hammered surfaces; length, 38.1 mm; width, 12.4 mm; weight 30.58 g. It does not conform to the usual shape of either Roman or Early Medieval ingots and has no distinguishing features. It is therefore undiagnostic and undatable, so does not qualify as Treasure under the stipulated criteria of the Treasure Act. We recommend that the Secretary of State should disclaim the Crown's interest in this find and should be grateful if the Coroner would authorise its return.

The weight is sub-rectangular in cross-section and in plan it is ‘drop’-shaped. As viewed from the side its shape is sub-triangular. Each face is roughly flat and two of the opposed faces are smaller and narrower. Close to the bottom these two narrow faces gradually evolve into a shallow groove that extends evenly around the base. Close to the apex on each of the wider faces there is a sub-circular depression filled with iron corrosion. This corrosion is pro…
