Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
An Early Post-Medieval silver-gilt finger ring dating from the 16th/ 17th century. It measures 17.27mm in diameter (internal 15.39mm) and weighs 1.3g.

The exterior surface of the hoop is undecorated while the internal surface displays the legend 'LOVE GOD'. The letters are rather crudely engraved into the metal.

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.)
