Medieval gold finger ring
Decorative gold finger ring with a D-shaped cross-section. Externally plain, the inner face is engraved in Gothic textura (black letter) script,. The reading is unclear. Allowing for the first letter as 'I' and the last two as 'LT', one possibility is a garbled vesrion of 'I VOELT'- 'I wish it', where the V has been written as an F (common in Welsh), and the O and E have been elided. Other possibilities are 'I felt', or a scrambled INRI, though this requires the 't' to be interpreted as an unusual cross. 'Iesi' does not appear to fit.
