13th-14th Century GOLD Stirrup Ring Updated. (Inquest Update.)..Outcome.

[Silver Searcher]

Two weeks into a new season and I just might have found my best ever find the day started off with a phone call from my detecting partner Michael, he could not make it due to a family illness we were due to go to our usual haunt in North Yorkshire

Any way I decided to go to a farm that is just 14 miles from were I live and were I have had some nice hammered, most of the land was still under crop but a small section of barley and rape seed stubble were detectable

After three hours of scrap lead the odd button and shot gun catridges I moved to a ridge just above the flood plain of the river the area was very quiet , on my second run down I received a sweet two way signal in the cordless phones looking down I immediately recognized what had gave the signal, the colour GOLD with a small blackish stone right in the middle staring straight back at me

It was a Medieval GOLD Stirrup Ring from about the 13th-14th Century in perfect condition. I think the stone might be a small blue or black Saphire.

The Gold wedding band I found last week turned out to be the farmers were we were detecting he had lost it just two weeks after he had been married back in 1991 I am returning the ring to him tommorrow. TK.

Is it stamped "gold"? Kidding. That is one beautiful ring, so often we think that we are the originators of various methods of craft making. The way the stone is set into the gold is fantastic. Nice that you found the farmers ring, you each get one!
