Object type: PENANNULAR RING
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Suffolk
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Copper alloy penannular ring of uncertain date. The hoop is sub-triangular in cross-section, having a wider flat internal face and two equally narrower and concave external faces. The terminals are fairly rounded by wear. There is no trace of the gold coating that is normal in Middle to Late Bronze Age rings. The metal is patinated pale green, with an overlying layer of pale yellowish green. Similarly shaped rings in copper-alloy on this database, also of uncertain date, include BUC-251D11 and SF-2A1951. Gold or gold-covered Bronze Age examples include SUR-EFB639 and SUSS-5EA230.

Record ID: BUC-251D11
Object type: PENANNULAR RING
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Buckinghamshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A cast copper alloy pennanular ring. The ring is widest around the centre of its circumference, with an almost triangular section. There is a small break in the circumference of the ring about 1.5mm wide and the ring is narrower on this side (about 3.5mm). The widest part of the ring on the opposing side is about 5.5mm wide. The internal diameter is about 13.5mm. The uneven width of the ring might suggest wear from use, in which case it is possible that the gap in the ring is a break and not intentional. The dating of this object is uncertain.
