Gold has a great advantage. It has been stored in the ground for many years and never loses its value. This ring is more than 1000 years old, it was lost by an Arab trader who traveled along the Great Silk Road to China in the Middle Ages. At the caravan park by the lake in the summer heat, he most likely decided to swim in the lake and took off his precious ring and lost it. After 1000 years, my friend found this ring with the help of a metal detector.

The golden ring has been lying in the ground for 1000 years, but it has only gotten better. Time has not spoiled it, the ancient gold still shines. Do you have any ancient gold in your collection?

That's a very interesting looking ring... It could have been used on wax seals...

Yes you are right. This is truly a signet ring. A rich Arab merchant used it to put his mark on goods and letters.

Thank you, friend!
