These are much rarer than later Celtic rings. It was just a piece of thick bronze wire twisted into a shape of a ring. Green and brown patina.
We do not clean our rings - we sell them as they come from hoards after washing with warm water to remove the adhering dust.
Before the introduction of struck coinage in Celtic lands, Celtic ring money were used as currency in Danube area, England, Ireland and France.
So you can touch with your fingers the magical Celtic past.
This coin is guaranteed to be authentic.
