Remember, the Roman Empire lasted until the fall of the Eastern Roman Empire (Byzantine) in 638 AD at the hands of the Muslim Arabs who were mercenaries hired by the wealthy Venetians.
# Therefore, this ring could date from the Roman era circa 200-300AD up into the Medieval Ages. As the article states, in the absence of a multi-million-dollar professional archeology dig, it is extremely difficult to date these bronze rings, especially as the designs were used over and over again. On the other hand, rings and other material recovered by these means are NOT for sale, and if they were would be extremely expensive. Therefore, we guarantee that they are ancient and that you will be happy with your purchase or your money back in full less the S & H /insurance.
It is an original ring as in not cleaned or fooled with in any way. This bronze ring can be restored to a gold-like appearance by any jeweler...or leave the outside original and just polish the inside of the ring. If the ring is totally cleaned, the patina is removed along with proof of its antiquity. Before you have it cleaned, retain color photos of the ring in its original state as additional proof of its antiquity.
After all, people used bronze for jewelry because it looked like gold but was much less expensive. In ancient and medieval times gold was far more expensive in relative terms than today. Back then, it was a labor intensive operation to remove gold with none of the machinery or acids used today that reduce the costs of recovery.
It was found in central Europe by a collector with a metal detector. Because of the reasons listed below we can not guaranty the exact date, but offer a 100% guaranty that it is genuine and our standard 100% guaranty that you will be happy with your purchase or all your money back, less S & H/insurance. After 44 years in business Ed Lee only wants happy customers.

This is an especially good place to start for new collectors. It will allow them to gain experience for a small investment per item. This is important because there are countless unscrupulous importers, diggers, sellers & collectors that prey on the innocent...meaning new collectors.
Also, with our great collectibles it allows buyers to compare prices to other items more or less comparable to what they want to bid on. Frankly, if you pay a little “too much” to get what you want, you didn't overpay...you got something that pleases you. And that is what collecting is all about. Also, quality doesn't cost, it pays. If you want to make money on your investments, switch to rare/semi-rare US coins which are in the early stages of a bull market and being propelled by a BULL MARKET in gold.
And part of the fun is to buy these relatively inexpensive items and research them yourselves. Imagine what these things would cost if professional archeologists did the work? Even worse, they must have official permission to dig, and the host country gets their choice of what is found, and in many cases they get to keep everything that is discovered. That would mean the end of inexpensive ancient material. It may come to that, but for today enjoy yourselves.
Bon Chance,
Ed Lee, President

We have the item described & will ship after receiving payment in full & you must abide by our Terms & agreements which are:

ATTN: ALL NON-US BIDDERS: We will no longer accept bids from anyone residing outside the US for non-antique items unless they want delivery inside the US. The reason for this is that FedEx just stuck us with more than $600 in customs duties for coins less than 100 years of age instead of requiring the customer to pay duties in his country. Items 100 or more years of age are widely considered to be antiques and free of customs duties. With our tiny markups and reserves, we cannot possibly pay customs for our non-US customers. We regret this, but any reasonable person will understand.
If you ignore this notice, you agree to take delivery inside the United States (unless you are willing to pay customs duties) and give up your right to post negative feedback when we refuse to deliver outside the US.
Also, we reserve the right to cancel any bid received from people with negative feed back. |
