Record ID: NMS-F30B55
Object type: UNIDENTIFIED OBJECT
Broad period: UNKNOWN
Workflow stage: Published Find published
Description: The find consists of a tiny, irregular, flat fragment of molten gold; width, 6mm; weight 0.3 grams. The fragment is undiagnostic and undatable, so does not qualify as Treasure under the stipulated criteria of the Treasure Act.

Record ID: NMS-449552
Object type: FINGER RING
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Norfolk
Workflow stage: Published Find published

Object type: FINGER RING
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Norfolk
Workflow stage: Published Find published
?BA gold finger-ring. The ring is plain though decorated with a pinched midrib running around its circumference. The midrib is beaten flat in some places, and in others has formed a break. The surface is not smooth although the quality of the metal is very good. Diam 20mm. Thickness less than 0.5mm. Width of band 7-8mm. Weighs 2.08g. The ring was squashed when found, and was taken to a jeweller who is responsible for its present circular shape. The jeweller perfomed the acid test and determined the ring is 24ct.

Object type: RING
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Norfolk
Workflow stage: Published Find published
Description: Undated gold ring. Slightly irregular section, D-shaped externally with a median arris internally. The internal surface is irregular and not well finished / smoothed in some areas. Date: Undated. Dimensions: Internal diameter 16 - 17mm. External diameter 22 - 22.5mm. Width of band 4 - 4.5mm. Thickness of band 2.5 - 3mm. Weight 6.7g. Discussion: The lack of diagnostic features make this ring difficult to date. The irregular section of the band would be unusual for a post-medieval finger ring, the form and plainness would be unusual for a ring of Roman to Medieval dat…
