    If you consider it, that is some workmanship. Nice recovery and a really great find! Thanks for sharing.

    Re: Silver/Viking silver ring found today

    Very nice & something I've not seen much if any from over there. So I went to the UK site to confirm for myself & yep yours is the first one I seen. It's in great shape so I'm thinking banner myself just for age quality & plain out cool as hell to me.
    Take care,
    Pete,

    That's a sweet find! What makes you consider it Viking? Is it the style? I know nothing of this type of relic except that it is hella cool!

    hi people thanks, the vking/saxons where around 6th century to 10th century so around 1400 to 1000 years ago. the type of ring has been found before and has been record as a saxon/viking style which mainly made of copper/bronze but a few like mine was made of silver! which isnt common

    Congrats for finding such a rare ring! It's nearly impossible to get a ring undamaged on ploughed land!

    Well, get a good long look at it, 'cause it'll be in analysis and review for about a yea. Maybe you'll get it back, maybe you'll get a few bob for it........
    Personally, I'd rather have the ring.
