<p>[QUOTE="ValiantKnight, post: 2424012, member: 44210"]Nearly doubled my small collection of ancient artifacts with these two rings. They are from the same seller as the previous artifacts I posted before, and they look legit, so I am not really worried about authenticity. Just hoping I can get some help as to if they are ancient, or medieval, etc., and any other important info about them. I find these old rings very fascinating; I know coins passed directly between peoples' hands, but I can't help but get a more personal and unique feel from these rings. These were actually worn and valued as possessions by other human beings long ago. Unfortunately the dull green one is two warped for me to put on, but when I put the other one on (carefully of course), I think "Wow. Someone many centuries ago had their finger right where mine is now." This all must sound silly to you guys but I tend think a little deeply about things sometimes (or I might just be easily entertained...).</p><p><br /></p><p>(braces for the inevitable Gollum holding ring reference)</p><p><br /></p><p>(this one looks like it might have had a small jewel in the middle)</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i1197.photobucket.com/albums/aa429/LurkingNinja/3_zps7qjl6wp3.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i1197.photobucket.com/albums/aa429/LurkingNinja/2_zpstw4iuz7r.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i1197.photobucket.com/albums/aa429/LurkingNinja/1_zpss4zax8ic.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i1197.photobucket.com/albums/aa429/LurkingNinja/6_zpsfponxb9x.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i1197.photobucket.com/albums/aa429/LurkingNinja/4_zpsxaghoqsm.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i1197.photobucket.com/albums/aa429/LurkingNinja/5_zpsd9aitrp5.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
