Description
I am listing an ancient ring from Britain.
These were digging finds around the Roman city of Londinium (London)
Found around sites well known to have been inhabited by the Roman Legions and people employed by the Roman State to support the troops and administration. The best guess at age would be around 200 AD in the later Roman period to 600 AD when the Jutes and Saxons were prevalent throughout the area.
These rings are from that period but could easily have been manufactured by anyone with the knowledge of smelting.
Many rings were made from alloy, bronze, copper or zinc. The rings in theses auctions are very simple, made for the common populace. There are many gold and silver examples adorned with gems and intricate designs, made for the elite but these were too expensive for the common people of London at the time.
Dug at London (Londinium) 1970
widest outer, 20.7 mm
thinnest inner 17.3 mm
2.77 g
Copper
In very good condition. as per pics.
c:200-600 AD (late Roman to early Saxon)
Pics are of the actual item you are bidding on.
I only use courier services, rural is more expensive but this ensures safer delivery. All goods delivered to your door. If you live at a rural address and opt for the urban tab, you will not receive your items. (no P O Boxes)
I will combine to save postage, please pay the higher amount of shipping and the other items can be added free of charge. I DO NOT OFFER FREE POSTAGE UNLESS STATED.
I can hold on to items for 3-4 days and combine shipping costs but please contact me if you wish to do so. I prefer payment within 2 days of the auction closing. Any items bid on and not paid for will be relisted and negative feedback listed.
Happy bidding, thanks for looking.
