Description
English: Treasure Case: 2010 T257. Medieval finger ring

Date: 14th-15th century

Date of discovery: 26 March 2010

Circumstances of discovery: While searching with a metal-detector.

Description: A late medieval gold finger-ring, the hoop formed from a band cut to resemble a double twist. The surface of each alternate twist is textured. The ring is distorted, and has a small split at one point.

Dimensions: Max diameter: 23mm.

The find therefore qualifies as Treasure under the stipulations of the Treasure Act 1996 in terms of both age and precious metal content.
