A pristine 400-year-old gold seal ring found by a metal detectorist in the Peak District could sell for tens of thousands of pounds at auction later this week.
The high carat gold ring, which is set with a blue-tinted Chalcedony gemstone carved with the initials ‘GL’ and three candles, dates back to somewhere between 1600 and 1650.
