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.
