AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Roman Empire Bronze Ring – 1st to 3rd Century AD
A Roman bronze ring featuring a broad oval bezel integrated into a substantial hoop, with the shoulders gradually expanding toward the upper section. The bezel is now largely plain, with no clearly preserved engraved device or inscription visible, suggesting either an originally undecorated surface or decoration that has been heavily worn through prolonged use and burial. The ring displays extensive surface mineralization, earthy deposits and a dark green-brown patina, giving it a strong archaeological appearance consistent with considerable age. Its simple but substantial construction is characteristic of personal bronze rings used during the later centuries of the Roman Empire.
Material: Bronze
Dimensions: 2.1 x 2.2 cm
Weight: 4.97 gr
Provenance: Acquired in Germany at an Auction House.
