Description: A silver twisted wire ring. Dimensions: Length: 18 mm Width: 17 mm Thickness: 3 mm Weight: 0.8 g Discussion: The option of this being an Early Medieval find was discarded on the basis of construction as it is made from a strip rather than a rod and also due to the format of the terminals. Also on the basis of construction (made of a strip of twisted silver with a twisted wire) the option of it being of Medieval date was put aside.

This gold object is the left half of a partial denture. Brian Williams from the British Dental Association Museum advises that 'it would appear to have fractured in the mid-line so originally there may have been more gold, of a similar size/shape, on the right side making the complete structure horse-shoe shaped. Judging by the surface shapes (circles) we think the structure is cast gold and dental casting didn't become available until the early 1900's. To mask the gold, much of the surface would have been covered in Vucanite (a hardened rubber material) made by the Goodyear Rubber Co…

Object type: FLAKE
Broad period: MODERN
County: Cheshire West and Chester
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
Flint flake which is irregular in shape. Both the bulb of percussion and ripples are visible. Large chips have been broken from the edges and it has not been retouched. It has been struck irregularly with a very hard blow, and this along with the 'crushed' edges indicates that the flake may have been struck in modern times. It has a smooth mid-grey patina.

Record ID: LVPL-8D0010
Object type: BRACELET
Broad period: MODERN
County: Cheshire West and Chester
Workflow stage: Published Find published
Hollow sheet metal bracelet, penannular in shape, with spherical terminals. Due to the weight of the bracelet it is highly unlikely that the material of this find is gold. The date is uncertain but it is not Ancient, post-dating 1707. As the find dates later than 1707, and does not contain the minimum of 10% precious metal necessary to qualify as Treasure, it falls outside the provisions of the Treasure Act 1996.
