Object type: MOUNT
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Northamptonshire

Gold circular band: this band is formed of hammered gold with a rough concave interior, suggesting that it was intended as a mount of some kind, rather than a finger ring. In the absence of any context or distinguishing stylistic features, this item is undatable.

Treasure case 2006 T430 Description Fragment of gold strip, embossed with four horizontal lines. In one corner there is a piercing, probably deliberate. The long edges have been folded back such that the folded edge appears on the ‘reverse’ side, from which the embossing has been carried out. Maximum length 30mm; maximum width 17mm; thickness less than 0.5mm; weight 1.21 grams. Identification In all likelihood the piece is more than 300 years old. However it is not possible to assign this fragment to a firm cultural or chronological context. Consequently, in terms o…

2005 T504 Gold ingot "Date: Not Known Description: A small ingot or piece of a gold object A small piece of gold, an irregular rectangle in plan (maximum dimensions 12.0mm x 9.5mm x 4.0mm; weight 3.0g). One surface is rough and pitted, the other more rounded. This may be an ingot or part of a partially melted object of unknown type or date. Discussion: The shape of this piece of gold is not diagnostic. There is no evidence from what period in the past this object dates from. Conclusion: The object is made of gold but there is no evidence to state if it was made more than 300 years old…

Workflow stage: Published
A gold object, probably a distorted finger ring of uncertain date. Curator's report: A strip of bright yellow pitted gold that has been bent six times forming three rough (un-unintended) loops. The edges of some sections appear to have been worked, being slightly rounded. Discussion: This strip of gold is long enough to have fitted round a small finger but there are no diagnostic features that could provide a date. Conclusion: Due to the undiagnostic nature of the find it can not be securely dated to pre-1708 and as such falls outside the provisions of the Treasure Act 1996 …

Object type: FINGER RING
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Suffolk
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A gold finger ring of uncertain date. It has a plain circular band that is sub-circular in section with a flat inner edge. The inner edge has several indentations and pock marks, presumably caused during production, but apparently no maker's marks or hallmarks. The ring measures 17.36mm in internal diameter, 22.84mm in external diameter, and weighs 8.58g. This plain gold ring is a beach find from close to a known Roman site. It is therefore possible that it could date to any time from the Roman period onwards. It was found over 20 years ago and is a single stray find, it therefore doe…

An irregular droplet of gold, measuring 13.57mm by 11.89mm by 6.85mm. Weight 6.83 grams. Date: Unknown Iron Age coins have been recovered from the same area, and it has been suggested that this piece of gold may have been connected with Iron Age gold working, such as coin production or recycling. However, a similar piece (2004 T408) was determined to be undiagnostic and undatable following metal analysis. As such, although the object has over 10% precious metal content by weight, the undiagnostic nature of the artefact means that it cannot be definitively dated pre1710 and as such…

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.)
