Title
Medieval ring
Description
English: A complete, copper alloy ring dating to the medieval or post-medieval periods (c. AD 1200-1800). The ring is broadly circular on the outer edge, with one small but particularly worn and flat section. The inner edge is sub-circular as a result of considerable wear in two places; it is possible that the ring was suspended from these points. The ring is hexagonal in cross-section. Filemarks are clearly visible on the outer edge, and the ring has a deep green surface patina. Cf. <a href="https://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/record/id/961640">SWYOR-32029E</a> and <a href="https://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/record/id/767111">SWYOR-9F7F7E</a>.

Diameter: 27.20mm, thickness: 3.68mm, weight: 6.01g.
