No stinking diamonds or rubies or emeralds needed for a BANNER ring. Nice one.

No vote for banner, till we hear the story on how this was found. I mean,..he may have "found" it in an antique shop.
Was this found detecting? DETAILS please!!!

One thing I have not found is old gold...seems hard to come by on colonial sites, at least for me!

Beautiful old poesy ring pure solid color of 24k gold that has to be Banner !! Great find Dd60
This i did not know learn something new each day provided by SS poesy finger rings with short inscriptions on their outer surfaces. More rarely the inscription is on the inner surface.

I find it very strange that this ring is not on the Banner if this doesn't make it, then something is very wrong

That ring has everything! It's gold, great craftmanship, it's old, looks cool, in great shape, cool inscription, and best of all YOU DUG IT! dig it!

Looks as if the craftsman cut the design into the ring. Very interesting find and should be banner IMO.

The letters are raised (although flush with the top surface) & the black (might be neillo) is put in the low points Top craftmanship & many hours work
