Gilt bronze, size 10 3/4. Form identified as Guiraud type 1. See Ancient Rings, Pollio, p.61.  Broad round face band with the Roman thickened base and banded flared shoulders. Circular bezel inscribed with the lituus, the wand of the augurs who were seers of the Roman pagan religion. They were wearable to predict the future by  ”reading” the flight of birds in an area prescribed by the lituus. Some wear from its time of use and surface texture from burial, but very well preserved with the 24karat gold surface restored. Gift boxed with certificate of authenticity.
