Cast copper alloy circular ring, possibly Roman in date. Plain ring with a rectangular cross section. It is corroded and the edges are slightly worn. There are lozenge shaped grooves decorating the outside face of the ring. It could have been a finger ring for a child as it is very small in diameter. Equally it could have been used on a belt or other fitting. The patina of this ring suggests it could be Roman. The edges of the ring are a light green which indicates corrosion. The main surface is a brown colour due to mud. Rings of this plain form are hard to date and assign a function …

Roman silver finger ring of semi-circular section and oval profile which swells to a wide flattened bezel, set with an ovoid orange-red carnelian intaglio flush with the bezel; this is engraved with a bird standing left holding a morsel of food in its beak. Scientific examination shows that the ring appears to be hollow but may originally have had a copper core plated thickly with silver which explains its mostly dull grey appearance.

Silver finger ring with carnelian intaglio. Guiraud Type 2c/d dating from the 1st century to the 1st half of the 3rd century AD. The hoop is oval and flares gently to an expanded bezel set with an oval intaglio. The intaglio is best viewed with its long axis running side to side. It has some slight damage on the right-hand side which may obscure some of the design, but is engraved with an eagle standing left, with an olive branch on the left.

Gold finger ring, probably of Roman date. The hoop consists of a narrow band, slightly elliptical in section. The ovoid bezel, which has been soldered onto the hoop, consists of an outer decorative band of beaded wire which surrounds a box setting for stone, now missing. The setting is crushed and damaged and the hoop bent and distorted.
Discussion: the ring is probably of Roman date, although this is not certain. A parallel for the style of the ring was found at Leeuwarden and published by Henkel (1913, no. 135).
Date: 3rd to 4th centuries AD?
Wt.: 2.41g D. of bezel: 9.5mm

Copper alloy ring, probably a finger ring, Roman in date.
It is formed by a thick, circular cross-sectioned copper aloly wire being curled round into two rows with slightly rounded terminals. Both terminals also have cross-hatched decoration, similar to the more delicate copper and silver Roman snake finger rings.
Although this seems very large for a finge ring, there are some similar examples on the PAS database.
A similar ring formed from a single turn can be seen in Lindsay Allason-Jones and Roger Miket's 'Catalogue of small finds from South Shields Roman fort,' 1984: pp 125-…
