Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Cast copper alloy ring, possibly a finger ring, of uncertain date. This ring has a circular cross section apart from a small sectin of c.10mm which is flattened, possibly as a simple bezel. It is difficult to date rings such as this as such simple forms were used for long periods of time. However the patina of this ring suggests it could be Post Medieval in date.
