Roman Gold Ring with Libra Intaglio in Hematite RARE +++
This ring fits me; I haven't worn it except once during an exhibit of Roman artifacts in 1978.
It is profoundly rare and is an early example of LIBRA carved into the hematite stone.
In absolutely immaculate condition; the stone speaks volumes for the authenticity (gold doesn't oxidize so can't be dated per se).
This came from Joel Malter and I have had it in my collection since 1972. I will miss it, but it must go; I have no way to display it in the forseeable future and must find for it a good home. Perhaps you will consider an endowment of it to the Institute at some future date???
Asking Price: $2250.00
