Gold finger ring with a slightly misshapen hoop, which broadens at the shoulders to meet the bezel. The bezel is comprised of a rectangular red glass to imitate a precious stone, in a rectangular setting. Arched decoration surrounds the setting. The bezel of this ring has close parallels with 2004 T485 (see Treasure Annual Report 2004, no.369), but this ring is a 19th-century imitation of a medieval-style ring. Therefore, this is classed as not Treasure.

A cast copper alloy pin, probably dating to the middle Anglo-Saxon period (AD 720 – 850). The pin has a flattened biconical head (globular), which has been crudely multi-facetted. The shaft is long and tapering from the conical lower part of the pin head. The head is undecorated. The shaft is bent and broken. There is a small narrow collar around the shaft, at the junction between the shaft and the head. The metal is a mid greyish-green colour and the original patina survives as a smooth, glossy surface – but it is also quite pitted.

Object type: AXEHEAD
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: North Yorkshire

The implement has been extensively knapped and highly polished into a sub-oval shape. The axe is wedge-shaped, with a pointed-oval section. The axe tapers to a rounded terminal (the butt end) and flares out at the other end to the cutting edge, t…

Object type: METAL WORKING DEBRIS
Broad period: EARLY MEDIEVAL
County: Lincolnshire
