Treasure Number: 2014 T217
A Post-Medieval gold signet finger-ring fragment. Most of the hoop is now missing although the bezel remains intact. The finger-ring shows a coat of arms which Dr Clive Cheeseman (Richmond Herald, College of Arms) has described as "being made up of a shield and a crest, with helmet and full mantling engraved in what appears to be a 17th century style. The shield has an engrailed saltire on it with a rose or cinquefoil in the upper part of the shield. It can often, as here, be difficult to tell the difference between a rose and a cinquefoil. If it is a ros…

Workflow stage: Published
An inscribed ring, silver gilt (?). Plain on one side, the other inscribed in relief ONCE MYNE AND EVER THYN with three crosses. The plain surface is very slightly curved, suggesting that the surface with the inscription is inside. The ring has been straightened and appears to have been repaired (repair located between TH and YN of the inscription 'THYN').
This ring does not correspond to any of the posy rings in the British Museum collections, which have exteriors that are either plain or decorated with inscriptions on the inside. This is therefore a puzzling example which ma…

Treasure number 2010 T293.
A Roman gold finger-ring, complete and in fine condition. The hexagonal hoop has a flat inner surface, a neatly-faceted external surface and prominent keeled shoulders. The lightly-raised oval box setting contains a banded quartz (nicolo) intaglio - flat, oval, with bevelled edge - finely-engraved with the figure of a swimming dolphin with a three-pronged trident protruding from its jaws (or from behind its head).
The image of a dolphin had several possible connotations in antiquity. The marine nature of this example is underlined by the addition of a tr…
