A 15th century gold signet ring, found at the site of the Battle of Towton. It has inconclusively been linked with Henry Percy, 3rd Earl of Northumberland (Hotspur's son), who was killed in the battle. 2/3 British Museum, item no. AF.771

A gold signet ring with a large band, the size that you'd expect to be worn by a man. The engraved bezel features a lion standing on all four paws and gazing at the viewer. Above the lion there's an inscription in black letters: NOW:YS:THUS, or "now is thus."
