Copper tin alloy Roman finger ring,
It has a raised circular bezel which is decorated with grooved lines forming a grid. The shoulders are slightly keeled and are decorated with a grooved triangle pointing away from the bezel on each side. The hoop narrows in width away from the shoulders but thickens on the other axis.
The precious metal content of the find is below 10% and therefore it falls outside the provisions of the Treasure Act 1996.
